A new theoretical framework argues that the long-standing split between computational functionalism and biological naturalism misses how real brains actually compute.

Scientists in Spain have used genetic algorithms to optimize a feedforward artificial neural network for the prediction of energy generation of PV systems. Genetic algorithms use “parents” and ...

Learn about the most prominent types of modern neural networks such as feedforward, recurrent, convolutional, and transformer networks, and their use cases in modern AI. Neural networks are the ...

In a study published in Science, researchers at Karolinska Institutet describe the neural processes behind how morphine relieves pain. This is valuable knowledge because the drug has such serious side ...

The Gillespie algorithm provides statistically exact methods for simulating stochastic dynamics modeled as interacting sequences of discrete events including systems of biochemical reactions or ...

First and foremost, we breathe in order to absorb oxygen—but this vital rhythm could also have other functions. Over the past few years, a range of studies have shown that respiration influences ...

A new theoretical study argues that many standard beliefs about consciousness are rooted in a misleading concept of how the ...
