Over the course of their lives, animals form associations between sensory stimuli and predicted threats or rewards. These associations can, in turn, shape the behaviors of animals, prompting them to ...

In the brain, synaptic plasticity - the ability to change neuronal connections over time - is fundamental to learning and memory. Traditionally, science has focused on nerve cells and their synapses.

The deep learning field has been dominated by “large models” requiring massive computational resources and energy, leading to unsustainable environmental and economic challenges. To address this, ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Computing systems have made impressive progress, but they still fall short when compared to the human brain’s energy efficiency and adaptability. Biological neurons handle complex ...

This study presents a bio-inspired control framework for soft robots, enhancing tracking accuracy by over 44% under disturbances while maintaining stability.
