***about the conference***
the international conference on brain informatics (bi) series has established itself as the world's premier research conference on brain informatics, which is an emerging interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research field that combines the efforts of cognitive science, neuroscience, machine learning, data science, artificial intelligence (ai), and information and communication technology (ict) to explore the main problems that lie in the interplay between human brain studies and informatics research.
the 16th international conference on brain informatics (bi'23) provides a premier international forum to bring together researchers and practitioners from diverse fields for presentation of original research results, as well as exchange and dissemination of innovative and practical development experiences on brain informatics research, brain-inspired technologies and brain/mental health applications.
