Description for Computational Models for Neuroscience
Hardback. The cerebral cortex is the area of the brain where almost all of the mental capabilities that distinguish humans from other animals are based. Understanding how it works is vital to science. This book provides an overview of work by key researchers, and shows how it can be used to develop and improve computational models for neural networks. Editor(s): McKenna, Thomas; Hecht-Nielsen, Robert. Num Pages: 299 pages, 27 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PSAN; UGK; UYQN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 19. Weight in Grams: 631.
Formal study of neuroscience (broadly defined) has been underway for millennia. For example, writing 2,350 years ago, Aristotle! asserted that association - of which he defined three specific varieties - lies at the center of human cognition. Over the past two centuries, the simultaneous rapid advancements of technology and (conse quently) per capita economic output have fueled an exponentially increasing effort in neuroscience research. Today, thanks to the accumulated efforts of hundreds of thousands of scientists, we possess an enormous body of knowledge about the mind and brain. Unfortunately, much of this knowledge is in the form of isolated factoids. ... Read more
