In machine learning, classification is usually seen as a function approximation problem, where the goal is to learn a function that maps input features to class labels. In this paper, we propose a novel clustering and classification…

Cognition involves dynamic reconfiguration of functional brain networks at sub-second time scale. A precise tracking of these reconfigurations to categorize visual objects remains elusive. Here, we use dense electroencephalography (EEG)…

Algorithms have been fundamental to recent global technological advances and, in particular, they have been the cornerstone of technical advances in one field rapidly being applied to another. We argue that algorithms possess fundamentally…

Neuroscience has long informed the development of artificial neural networks, but the success of modern architectures invites, in turn, the converse: can modern networks teach us lessons about brain function? Here, we examine the structure…

Hierarchies feature prominently in anatomical accounts of cortical organisation. An open question is which computational (algorithmic) processes are implemented by these hierarchies. One renowned hypothesis is that cortical hierarchies…

Despite the recent success of machine learning algorithms, most models face drawbacks when considering more complex tasks requiring interaction between different sources, such as multimodal input data and logical time sequences. On the…

Full scale simulations of neuronal network models of the brain are challenging due to the high density of connections between neurons. This contribution reports run times shorter than the simulated span of biological time for a full scale…
