Constructing a Theory of the Brain
What are the necessary elements for a genuine theory of the brain and what will it take to construct one? In my previous posts I talked about a number of […]
Building The Brain With Modules
Models in computational neuroscience that solve for one outcome cannot combine with one that solves for another. Can a modular approach solve this? The short answer is No. Here’s why. […]
The Crisis of Computational Neuroscience
Computational Models attempt to explain the behavior of the brain using neural network simulations, but assumptions that help simulate one phenomenon are destructive to the simulation of another. My previous […]
