The Erlangen AI Hub Conference took place on 9-11 June 2025 at Queen Mary University of London. It brought together over 100 leading minds from across the UK’s mathematical, algorithmic and computational communities to advance the application of pure mathematics in AI. It formed a key element of an exciting programme that aims to unite and revolutionise the mathematical field to unlock new and improved AI systems.
At the conference, C4DM Director Prof. Mark Sandler presented "The Case for Artificial Neuroscience: Holistic Rigour for Understanding and Engineering Better Deep Learning". The talk is linked with Prof. Sandler's ongoing project funded by the EPSRC entitled Artificial Neuroscience: metrology and engineering for Deep Learning using Linear Algebra.
The EPSRC-funded Erlangen AI Hub exists to revolutionise the application of pure mathematics to understand AI, unifying and expanding the field to unlock new, more intelligent systems - more information on the hub can be found at https://erlangenhub.ox.ac.uk/.
