Neuron Prediction 800x600 1

Individual Neurons Can Learn by Predicting Future Activity

Humans have been trying to comprehend exactly how the brain works and how it obtains information for centuries. While neuroscientists now have a decent understanding of how different parts of the brain work and what their function is, numerous questions remain unanswered; therefore, a unified neuroscience theory is still missing. In recent years, computer scientists […]
