Study shows neural computational models trained to perform auditory tasks display an internal organization similar to that of the human auditory cortex.An assortment of hearing aids – illustrative photo. Computational models that mimic the structure and function of the human auditory system could help researchers design better hearing aids, cochlear implants, and brain-machine interfaces. A...

The spontaneous emergence of brain-like functional specialization in neural networks
by Thamarasee Jeewandara, Medical Xpress Distinct face and object representations in singly trained CNNs while a dual-task CNN performs well. (A) Three networks with VGG16 architecture (left) were optimized, one on face identity categorization (Face CNN in red), one on object categorization (Object CNN in orange), and one on both tasks simultaneously (dual-task CNN in...

Using real neural networks to pinpoint the start of brain disease
by Kelly Oakes, Norwegian University of Science and Technology Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain When the symptoms of neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s become clear enough to make a diagnosis, there have already been significant changes in a person’s brain. That’s why researchers believe that finding a way to identify this turning point could be the key to better treatments....
