  2. Computational neuroscience - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_neuroscience

    Computational neuroscience (also known as theoretical neuroscience or mathematical neuroscience) is a branch of neuroscience which employs mathematics, computer science, theoretical analysis and abstractions of the brain to understand the principles that govern the development, structure, physiology and cognitive abilities of the nervous system.

  3. Models of neural computation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Models_of_neural_computation

    The entire behavior of a neuron or synapse are encoded in a transfer function, lack of knowledge concerning the exact underlying mechanism notwithstanding. This brings a highly developed mathematics to bear on the problem of information transfer. The accompanying taxonomy of linear filters turns out to be useful in characterizing neural circuitry.

  4. Neuropsychology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuropsychology

    Neuropsychology is a branch of psychology concerned with how a person's cognition and behavior are related to the brain and the rest of the nervous system.Professionals in this branch of psychology focus on how injuries or illnesses of the brain affect cognitive and behavioral functions.

  5. Neuroscience - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroscience

    Neuroscience is the scientific study of the nervous system (the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nervous system), its functions, and its disorders. [1] [2] [3] It is a multidisciplinary science that combines physiology, anatomy, molecular biology, developmental biology, cytology, psychology, physics, computer science, chemistry, medicine, statistics, and mathematical modeling to understand ...

  6. Mathematics of artificial neural networks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_artificial...

    Mathematically, a neuron's network function () is defined as a composition of other functions (), that can further be decomposed into other functions. This can be conveniently represented as a network structure, with arrows depicting the dependencies between functions.

  7. Cognitive neuroscience - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_neuroscience

    Cognitive neuroscience is the scientific field that is concerned with the study of the biological processes and aspects that underlie cognition, [1] with a specific focus on the neural connections in the brain which are involved in mental processes.

  8. Artificial neuron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_neuron

    An artificial neuron may be referred to as a semi-linear unit, Nv neuron, binary neuron, linear threshold function, or McCulloch–Pitts (MCP) neuron, depending on the structure used. Simple artificial neurons, such as the McCulloch–Pitts model, are sometimes described as "caricature models", since they are intended to reflect one or more ...

  9. Neuron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuron

    A neuron, neurone, [1] or nerve cell is an excitable cell that fires electric signals called action potentials across a neural network in the nervous system. They are located in the brain and spinal cord and help to receive and conduct impulses.
