Talk: Theoretical and Computational Models of Cognitive Development (November, 2023)

Full Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfEdji2LbwI&t

In this detailed presentation, we explore the rich field of cognitive development through the lens of theoretical and computational models. This video was created as part of a special module in Computational Neuroscience during my coursework. The content delves into how cognitive modeling and theoretical frameworks have been employed in modern research. The computational perspective provides insights into the underlying mechanisms and the use of deep learning models, specifically DCNN (Deep Convolutional Neural Network) models. The video also includes two major researches in Cognitive Development.

This video aimed to serve as a foundational resource for young and early-career researchers interested in computational models of cognitive development. 🧠

This module was instructed by Prof. Pawan Sinha from MIT Brain and Cognitive Sciences Department and Dr. Priti Gupta (Post Doctoral Researcher at Indian Institute of Technology Delhi), whose guidance and expertise have significantly shaped the discourse and understanding presented in this video.

EEG Demonstration on Open House 2023

Indian Institute of Technology Delhi

This project showcases the development and implementation of a wearable EEG and EMG module, highlighting advancements in neurotechnology and its accessibility through common platforms like Arduino. The demonstration, titled "Hear Your Brain Whistling and How Hard Can You Squeeze," aimed to provide a hands-on experience of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) to visitors at IIT Delhi's Open House 2023.

The development of this project began in October last year when the team decided to focus on creating an accessible, yet innovative, demonstration of EEG and EMG technologies. The main objective was to demystify the complex world of brain-wave reading and muscle-nerve signal interpretation through user-friendly interfaces.

Using the BioAmp EXG Pill, a versatile biosignal amplifier, and a standard Arduino board, the team embarked on crafting a wearable module capable of real-time EEG and EMG data acquisition. The coding journey involved meticulous programming to ensure the Arduino could not only collect but also process and display the data in an understandable format. The software developed by Tarun and his team was designed to be open-source, allowing for future enhancements and community contributions.
