Dear colleagues,

Barcelona will held next February the Bridging Attention and Prediction Workshop. The workshop will gather leading researchers in the field of Prediction and Attention that study these topics from different perspectives (speech processing, visual perception, learning, development, etc). The mix of speakers intends to create a floor for discussion about different aspects that are nowadays a matter of debate in the different fields.

The workshop is organized as a series of talks held on 2 days (6th of February and 20th of February) with a poster session and a Round Table where we will have discussions between the speakers participating each of the days.
