Simple Substrates for Complex Cognition
Complex cognitive tasks present a range of computational and algorithmic challenges for neural accounts of both learning and inference. In particular, it is extremely hard to solve them using the sort of simple policies that have been extensively studied as solutions to elementary Markov decision problems. There has thus been recent interest in architectures for the instantiation and even learn...
متن کاملModeling of Anaerobic Digestion of Complex Substrates
A structured mathematical model of anaerobic conversion of complex organic materials in non-ideally cyclic-batch reactors for biogas production has been developed. The model is based on multiple-reaction stoichiometry (enzymatic hydrolysis, acidogenesis, acetogenesis and methanogenesis), microbial growth kinetics, conventional material balances in the liquid and gas phases for a cyclic-bat...
متن کاملOn Neural Substrates of Cognition
Recent experiments with highresolution brain imaging techniques provide an amazing view on the complex spatio-temporal dynamics of cortical processes. There is ample of evidence pointing to frequent transitions between periods of large-scale synchronization and intermittent desynchronization at alpha-theta rates (period length of 0.1 s to 0.25s). These observations have been interpreted based o...
متن کاملTINS special issue: The Neural Substrates of Cognition The neural substrates of cognition
Introduction The reviews in this issue of TINS represent a particularly interesting subset of formal presentations at a meeting held last year in Madrid, Spain. This meeting was sponsored by the Juan March Foundation, was organized by myself, Adam Sillito and Javier Cudeiro, and was entitled ‘The Neural Substrates of Cognition’. Further details of the meeting, including a list of speakers, can ...
متن کاملCetaceans Have Complex Brains for Complex Cognition
T he brain of a sperm whale is about 60% larger in absolute mass than that of an elephant. Furthermore, the brains of toothed whales and dolphins are signifi cantly larger than those of any nonhuman primates and are second only to human brains when measured with respect to body size [1]. How and why did such large brains evolve in these modern cetaceans? One current view of the evolution of dol...
