In　this　talk,　we　outline　a　vision　of　Web　Intelligence　(WI)　research　from　the　viewpoint　of　Brain　Informatics　(BI),　a　new　interdisciplinary　field　that　studies　the　mechanisms　of　human　information　processing　from　both　the　macro　and　micro　viewpoints　by　combining　experimental　cognitive　neuroscience　with　advanced　information　technology.　BI　can　be　regarded　as　brain　sciences　in　WI　centric　IT　age　and　emphasizes　on　a　systematic　approach　for　investigating　human　information　processing　mechanism.　Advances　in　instruments　like　fMRI　and　information　technologies　offer　more　opportunities　for　research　in　both　Web　intelligence　and　brain　sciences.　Further　understanding　of　human　intelligence　through　brain　sciences　fosters　innovative　Web　intelligence　research　and　development.　Web　intelligence　portal　techniques　provide　a　powerful　new　platform　for　brain　sciences.　The　synergy　between　WI　and　BI　advances　our　ways　of　analyzing　and　understanding　of　data,　knowledge,　intelligence　and　wisdom,　as　well　as　their　relationship,　organization　and　creation　process.　Web　intelligence　is　becoming　a　central　field　that　changes　information　technologies,　in　general,　and　artificial　intelligence,　in　particular,　towards　human-level　Web　intelligence.　©　Springer-Verlag　Berlin　Heidelberg　2007.
