The development of classical and contemporary informatics, the
cross-fertilization between computer science, software engineering, cognitive
science, and neuropsychology, has led to a whole range of extremely interesting
new research areas known as cognitive informatics. Cognitive informatics is the
transdisciplinary study of cognitive and information sciences that investigates
into the internal i... hiện toàn bộ

The emergence of functional maturity in the brain relies upon the interplay
between form and function during its developmental history. This interaction
continues throughout life and changes in neuronal function lead to changes in
diverse structural scales in the brain. Both regulatory genes, which define
compartments in the nervous system, and activity-dependent processes cooperate
to determine n... hiện toàn bộ
Rational decision making depends on what one believes, what one desires, and
what one knows. In conventional decision models, beliefs are represented by
probabilities and desires are represented by utilities. Software agents are
knowledgeable entities capable of managing their own set of beliefs and desires,
and they can decide upon the next operation to execute autonomously. They are
also interac... hiện toàn bộ
We discuss the role of synchrony of activationin higher-level cognitive
processes. Inparticular, we analyze the question of whethersynchrony of
activation provides a mechanismfor compositional representation in
neuralsystems. We will argue that synchrony ofactivation does not provide a
mechanism forcompositional representation in neural systems.At face value, one
can identify a level ofcomposition... hiện toàn bộ
The ability to predict is the most importantability of the brain. Somehow, the
cortex isable to extract regularities from theenvironment and use those
regularities as abasis for prediction. This is a most remarkableskill,
considering that behaviourallysignificant environmental regularities are noteasy
to discern: they operate not only betweenpairs of simple environmental
conditions, astraditional ... hiện toàn bộ
Gene nhảy múa. Chúng nhảy múa cùng với văn hóa. Chúng nhảy múa với môi trường.
Gen tác động đến thế giới thông qua não bộ, tư duy và hành vi. Về mặt lịch sử,
các nhà tâm lý học, nhà trị liệu, giáo viên và hầu hết mọi người đều hiểu gen
trong bối cảnh các thí nghiệm của Gregor Mendel, mà chỉ được giải thích một phần
cho chúng ta. Trong khi nhiều nghiên cứu chỉ ra rằng cấu trúc não bộ và hành vi
