Neuroinformatics
from the let's-all-work-together dept
I've been reading about "neural nets" for years, and remember playing around with a few neural net programs a long time ago. Despite lots of hype, not very much ever came from neural nets - and now some people are trying to change that. The problem with neural nets, some claim, is that most of the work is based on what we knew about the brain many years ago. Current neuroscientists and computer scientists don't communicate enough. So, now people are talking about "neuroinformatics" to try to update the science behind neural nets.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
