Srinivasa Chakravarthy is a professor in the Department of Biotechnology, IIT Madras & his Lab" The Computational Neuroscience Lab" is working on modeling the human brain, Reverse engineering the brain in a computer. The holy grail of their effort is to build a simplified whole brain model called the MESOBRAIN. this model will be a prototype of the brain with only about 1 to 10 million neurons.  The model will be realized by generic, trainable oscillatory neural networks that can be applied to a wide range of neurobiological phenomena including sensory function (vision, speech and touch), motor function, language and decision making.  CNS Labs mission is to build a simplified model of the whole brain and use it to develop applications in medicine and engineering

Prof Srinivasa has authored two books - Demystifying the Brain - A Computational Approach and Computational Neuroscience Models of the Basal Ganglia. He is also the inventor of a novel script called Bharati, a unified script for Indian languages

AI, ROBOTICS, PERCEPTION, WORLD MODELS Krishna Murthy Jattavallabhula is a postdoctoral associate at  @MITCSAIL   with Josh Tenenbaum and Antonio Torralba.  Kartik earned his PhD ( see thesis) at  @Mila - Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute   and the Robotics and Embodied AI Lab, advised by Liam Paull.

Kartik's research centers around building invertible world models — representations that encode how the world works. These world models enable the design of intelligent systems that perceive, reason, and act. his research spans several areas including #robotics #computervision , computer graphics; and intertwines our understanding of the world with #deeplearning.

Kartik's work has been recognized with PhD fellowship awards from  @NVIDIA   and  @Google  and a best-paper award from IEEE RAL.

#climatechange #climatecrisis #india #existentialcrisis #globalwarming #toctw

Climate Crisis seems to be India's largest existential threat, India lists 35 cities among the 50 Most polluted cities in the world, New Delhi has been ranked the world's most polluted capital city for a second consecutive year, Uttar Pradesh’s Ghaziabad was ranked as the second-most polluted, after Bhiwadi in Rajasthan, out of 6,475 cities across the world in an annual air quality report prepared by Swiss organization IQAir. Air pollution caused an estimated 1.6 million deaths in 2019 in India — the highest in the world, according to a new report. The overall pollution-related deaths were also the highest in India (2.4 million); this includes water, lead and occupation-related pollution. According to report, more than 40% of India's population will face water scarcity by 2050, and at the same time the country's coastal areas, including big cities like Mumbai, will be affected by rising sea levels.

A new UN report has warned that climate change repercussions for India will be irreversible if New Delhi doesn't take drastic measures by 2030. Are Indian authorities up for the challenge?  Spoke to Santhosh thannikat a sustainability expert & the founder of homestay Thani Illam in Thottuva, Perumbavoor, in Ernakulam district. We spoke about extreme weather conditions in India, the reason for India's climate crisis & what you/me/everyone can do to try to reverse India's climate crisis.
