Requests

• Introduction to machine learning and/or statistical learning

• NetLogo (now that we know what cool stuff it can do, it'd be nice to get a hands-on tutorial; e.g. bring a laptop to the tutorial and have a guided try-this session).

• Game theory, evolutionary game theory, stochastic game theory

• Genetic algorithms -> I think GA's will be covered in the evolutionary computation lectures. But if not, I'd be happy to give an informal introduction. ->Josh

• Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors

• Attractor Neural Networks

• Control theory

• Sequence Complexity/Information Theory [Gregor] -> Information theory will be covered by Tom_Carter in a late breaking session Friday 8th, 1.30. This will probably cover sequence complexity.
