The International Conference on Brain Informatics (BI) serie s has established itself as the world’s premier research conference on Bra in Informatics\, which is an emerging interdisciplinary and multidisciplin ary research field that combines the efforts of Cognitive Science\, Neuros cience\, Machine Learning\, Data Science\, Artificial Intelligence (AI)\, and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to explore the main pro blems that lie in the interplay between human brain studies and informatic s research.
\nThe 16th International Conference on Brain Informatics (BI’23) provides a premier international forum to bring together research ers and practitioners from diverse fields for presentation of original res earch results\, as well as exchange and dissemination of innovative and pr actical development experiences on brain Informatics research\, brain-insp ired technologies and brain/mental health applications.
\nThe key th eme of the conference is “Brain Science meets Artificial Intellige nce“.
\nThe BI’23 solicits high-quality original research a nd application papers (both full paper and abstract submissions). Relevant topics include but are not limited to:

An interesting rationalization of these aspirations can be disce rned in a short verse narrative of a well-known episode in the youth of Al exander the Great\, conqueror of India\, together with his tutor\, the phi losopher Aristotle. Not only does it involve Greeks and Indians singing Fr ench songs and cosplaying French lovers\, but the philosopher is induced t o pretend to be a horse and then justifies his behavior as “natural\,” wit h far-reaching implications which this talk will explore.

This plu ralism is often seen as a reason to attend to a range of perspectives\, pe rspectives which can function as a source of information in determining wh ich principles should guide justice. However\, philosophy’s ability to pro perly attend to different perspectives has received extensive attention in the criticisms of various non-ideal theorists\, who argue that ideal-theo retical philosophy runs the risk of excluding important aspects of actual social problems. Taking these criticisms on board\, this paper builds on n on-ideal theory by arguing for a Wittgensteinian family resemblance approa ch to justice. I will explain how this linguistic practice-embedded unders tanding of justice can be a helpful tool for non-ideal theory\, as it can give us insight into why\, in various similar but different cases\, the no tion of justice is seen as applicable. In light of this approach\, I will suggest a reorientation of the pluralist demand towards an empirical start ing point.
