Neurobiological processing systems are remarkable computational devices. They use slow,
stochastic, and inhomogeneous computing elements and yet they outperform today's most …

Neuromorphic computing is a critical future technology for the computing industry, but it has
yet to achieve its promise and has struggled to establish a cohesive research community. A …

How do the computations of the cerebral cortex and subcortical structures account for
human perception, cognition, and affect? Answering this question requires understanding …

New computing technologies inspired by the brain promise fundamentally different ways to
process information with extreme energy efficiency and the ability to handle the avalanche of …

Computers have undergone tremendous improvements in performance over the last 60
years, but those improvements have significantly slowed down over the last decade, owing …

Computational neuroscience is a relatively new but rapidly expanding area of research
which is becoming increasingly influential in shaping the way scientists think about the …

The human cerebral cortex is central to a wide array of cognitive functions, from vision to
