Fast and slow synaptic plasticity enables concurrent control and learning
The role of the fast weights, δwi, is to transiently adjust neuronal output to suppress immediate errors – errors that can be predicted if y * changes slowly. The role of the slow weights, wi, is to ...
What makes humans intelligent? These unique neurons might hold the key
Concepts encoded by concept neurons can be an animal, an article of clothing, a place, or a person. The concept can be evoked ...
Researchers get spiking neural behavior out of a pair of transistors
Examples like Intel's Loihi chips tend to get competitive performance out of far lower clock speeds and energy use, but they ...
The Worm That No Computer Scientist Can Crack
One of the simplest, most over-studied organisms in the world is the C. elegans nematode. For 13 years, a project called ...
