In recent years, deep learning has steadily improved the state of art in artificial intelligence (AI), but mainly for single, well-defined tasks or challenges. Novel advanced neural network architectures, possibly inspired by neuroscience, are needed to create more general-purpose AI systems with flexible and robust capabilities. The Global Workspace Theory (GWT), introduced over 30 years ago, ...

Triality theory is proved for a general unconstrained global optimization problem. The method adopted is simple but mathematically rigorous. Results show that if the primal problem and its canonical dual have the same dimension, the triality theory holds strongly in the tri-duality form as it was originally proposed. Otherwise, both the canonical min-max duality and the double-max duality still...

Based on the generalized continued-fraction method for finding the nth roots of real numbers, this paper presents a fast computation method for finding the principal nth roots of complex matrices. Computation algorithms with high convergence rates are developed, and their global convergence properties are investigated from the viewpoint of systems theory.

we discuss the asymptotic behaviour of solutions for the nonlocal quasilinear hyperbolic problem of kirchhoff type [ u_{tt}-phi (x)||nabla u(t)||^{2}delta u+delta u_{t}=|u|^{a}u,, x in mathbb{r}^{n} ,,tgeq 0;,]with initial conditions $u(x,0) = u_0 (x)$ and $u_t(x,0) = u_1 (x)$, in the case where $n geq 3, ; delta geq 0$ and $(phi (x))^{-1} =g (x)$  is a positive function lying in $l^{n/2}(mathb...
