These are central functions of the brain, around which many fundamental principles of brain function are built.

There are two camps for explaining the weak performance of artificial intelligence: Either we do not know enough of the fundamental principles of brain function, or we have not simulated enough neurons working together.

Not exact matches

Or, moving up to a higher level, if the chemistry of the brain were altered, then the capacity of mental principles to function would be affected also.

By applying engineering principles and computer modeling, we can investigate how the human body functions, whether it is on computational mechanism of the brain, object recognition, or motor control.

Memory functions in the brain work according to a principle that neuroscientists call «sparse coding», i.e. a comparatively small number of neurons encode complex information — possibly to make overlap between different memories more unlikely.

While each brain is unique, the basic neuronal circuitry that underlies the remarkable range of functions and behaviours of all brains emerges according to a common set of principles.

The Chen Institute at Caltech involves faculty from across Caltech's six academic divisions, creating a campuswide interdisciplinary community of neuroscientists, biologists, chemists, physicists, engineers, computer scientists, and social scientists, all with the shared goal of understanding the fundamental principles that underlie brain function.

Although there is obvious variation in brain organization across vertebrate species, the basic brain blueprint has remained remarkably stable for millions of years, as have the mechanistic principles associated with how it regulates various functions, including behavior.
