Abstract
Some comments are offered on the papers given at the conference, which are divided into three groups: visual perception, models and neural networks, and data analysis. The analysis stresses the complexity faced by scientific theories in each of these three areas, and consequently why the demand for computing capacity will continue to increase, with no practical bound in sight.
