Then something magical happens! Gradually, patterns and structures emerge, eventually forming an understanding of our surroundings. Through these developments, babies transform at a breathtaking pace from completely helpless into autonomous beings — curious &#8220;learning machines&#8221; that actively explore their environment, learn new skills, and engage in meaningful interactions with others. What exactly has happened here? How do these remarkable changes come about in such a short time? And when we unravel the principles of human learning, could we also make AIs learn like humans?</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These and other questions will be explored (in Dutch) from two different perspectives at the Science Café on December 9 by Sabine Hunnius and Jim Portegies. Hunnius (RU), with her BabyBRAIN lab, investigates the learning mechanisms and changes in brains and thinking that drive early cognitive development. She does this using advanced baby research and theoretical approaches. Mathematician Portegies (TU/e) examines human learning through the hypothesis that, fundamentally, it is driven by mathematical processes, with a central role for simplification and abstraction. His ultimate goal is to expose these mechanisms and replicate them in practical, universal learning algorithms that would enable robots to learn like a small child.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throughout the evening, Portuguese artist Jorge da Rocha will invite us into his captivating musical universe of jazz, folk, alternative, and experimental music. He creates this with his unique double bass explorations, blending multiple instruments and electronics. It promises to be an educational evening — a night where babies and math come together.</p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>scientists /8pm </em></strong><em>Sabine Hunnius (BRC, RU) and Jim Portegies (EAISI, TU/e)</em><em></em></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>music /7.30pm</em></strong><em>&nbsp; </em><em>Jorge da Rocha</em><em></em></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>m</em></strong><strong><em>oderator</em></strong><strong><em> </em></strong><em>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </em><em>Béatrice Bonga</em><em></em></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>time</em></strong><em>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </em><em>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </em><em>Mon</em><em>day December 9th 2024, </em><em>7</em><em>.</em><em>3</em><em>0/</em><em>8</em><em> – 10 pm</em><em><br><strong>venue</strong> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </em><em>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </em><em>The Shamrock, Smetiusstraat 17, Nijmegen</em><em></em></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>admission</em></strong><em>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </em><em>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </em><em>free admission</em><em> (no reservation)</em></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>language</em></strong><em>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </em><em>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </em><em>Dutch</em></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>info        </em></strong><em>             <a href=\"http://www.sciencecafenijmegen.nl\">www.sciencecafenijmegen.nl</a></em></p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>neurocognition and mathematical learning algorithms As blank slates, we come into the world, with a chaos of electrochemical sparks in our brains.
