Analogue brains
D igital computers and mammalian brains share not only a talent for computation but also a method that favors absolutes. The ones and zeros of a computer are analogous to the all-or-none character of action potentials in the brain. Neurons sum all incoming depolarizing signals until, at a threshold level of depolarization, an action potential fi res along the axon. Now, however, Henrik Alle and...
متن کاملHallucinating Brains with Artificial Brains
Human brain function as measured by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), exhibits a rich diversity. In response, understanding the individual variability of brain function and its association with behavior has become one of the major concerns in modern cognitive neuroscience. Our work is motivated by the view that generative models provide a useful tool for understanding this variabili...
متن کاملBrains have emulators with brains: Emulation economized
This commentary addresses the neural implementation of emulation, mostly using findings from functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI). Furthermore, both empirical and theoretical suggestions are discussed that render two aspects of emulation theory redundant: independent modal emulators and extra measurement of amodal emulation. This modified emulation theory can conceptually integrate simu...
متن کاملPlastic brains.
Memories fade, alas, and more rapidly with age, though the aging brain holds more tenaciously to the longer past. Or does it? The brain may be continually editing those seemingly clear memories. That the immature brain constructs, "sculpts" itself by configuring its neural linkages to make best use of the sensory input received in early life has been known for decades. The more recent news is t...
متن کاملArtificial Brains
This chapter introduces the idea of " Evolvable Hardware, " which applies evolutionary algorithms to the generation of programmable hardware as a means of achieving Artificial Intelligence. Cellular Automata-based Neural Networks are evolved in different modules, which form the components of artificial brains. Results from past models and plans for future work are presented.
