Researchers at the University of Chicago have developed a brain network model that can predict people's surprise. In a paper published in Nature Human Behaviour, they showed that this model ...

Scientists have created a virtual brain network that can predict the behavior of individual neurons in a living brain. The model is based on a fruit fly's visual system, and it offers scientists a ...

The human brain contains about 86 billion neurons. These cells fire electrical signals that help the brain store memories and ...

or maps of brain cell connections. The connectome data came from several different classic lab animals, including fruit flies, roundworms, marine worms and the mouse retina. To understand how neurons ...

In their paper, "TopoLM: Brain-Like Spatio-Functional Organization in a Topographic Language Model," one of the less than 2% of papers selected to be presented orally this week at ICLR 2025 ...

Learning from and about the brain The paper offers a perspective on how researchers ... seen as in opposition to deep learning’s model training method known as backpropagation, but Eshraghian ...

was developed to model the brain in silico and to determine how brain activities are related to human behavior and brain diseases. The research was published as a conference paper at ICLR 2024, a high ...

To create this model, Khurana's lab used special delivery ... both neurons and key inflammatory "glial" cells in the brain, the current paper only examines these cells individually.

Although the paper describing the model has just come out, the model itself has been available for more than a year. Brain scientists have taken note. "I'm using this model in my own work," says ...
