One of the most striking outcomes of the surface-minimization framework is its ability to explain structural features that ...

Last month, a YouTube video of a conference talk in Berlin, shared widely among artificial-intelligence researchers, offered a possible answer. In the talk, Naftali Tishby, a computer scientist and ...

How do electrical signals become "about" something? Through purely physical processes, neural networks transform activity ...

A new accelerator chip called 'Hiddenite' that can achieve state-of-the-art accuracy in the calculation of sparse 'hidden neural networks' with lower computational burdens has now been developed. By ...

Here, each neuron is represented as spacecrafts, with their pilots in the cockpits depicted in the shape of protein 3D structures. These spacecrafts collectively process and transmit information to ...

How useful a memory is for future situations determines where it resides in the brain, according to a new theory proposed by researchers at HHMI"s Janelia Research Campus and collaborators at UCL. The ...

Consciousness is one of the most enigmatic phenomena in neuroscience, but a new scientific perspective offers a different ...

Modern neuroscience and the computational modeling of the activities of vast, integrated neural networks provide fruitful accounts of how our minds work and learn.
