Objective: By modeling the cochlear implant (CI) electrode-to-nerve interface and quantifying electrode discriminability in the model, we address the questions of how many individual channels can be distinguished by CI recipients and the extent to which performance might be improved by inserting electrodes deeper into the cochlea. Method: We adapt an artificial neural network to model electrode discrimination...
Biological brains exhibit a remarkable capacity to recognise real-world patterns effectively. Despite major advances in neuroscience over the last few decades, an understanding of the brain's underlying mechanisms for pattern recognition remains unattained. Efforts to replicate such high-level brain functions on the basis of the limited, low-level known details of the brain have naturally led to critical...
As neurobiological evidence points to the neocortex as the brain region mainly involved in high-level cognitive functions, an innovative model of neocortical information processing has been recently proposed. Based on a simplified model of a neocortical neuron, and inspired by experimental evidence of neocortical organisation, the Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) model attempts at understanding...
