Imaging Brain Function With EEG
Advanced Temporal and Spatial Analysis of Electroencephalographic Signals
Language: English
Release Date: October 28, 2012
The scalp and cortex lie like pages of an open book on which the cortex enciphers vast quantities of information and knowledge. They are recorded and analyzed as temporal and spatial patterns in the electroencephalogram and electrocorticogram. This book describes basic tools and concepts needed to...
Biological and Quantum Computing for Human Vision
Holonomic Models and Applications
Language: English
Release Date: November 30, 2010
Many-body interactions have been successfully described through models based on classical or quantum physics. More recently, some of the models have been related to cognitive science by researchers who are interested in describing brain activity through the use of artificial neural networks (ANNs). Biological...
A New Foundation for Representation in Cognitive and Brain Science
Category Theory and the Hippocampus
Language: English
Release Date: November 22, 2013
The purpose of the book is to advance in the understanding of brain function by defining a general framework for representation based on category theory. The idea is to bring this mathematical formalism into the domain of neural representation of physical spaces, setting the basis for a theory of...
Studies of Mind and Brain
Neural Principles of Learning, Perception, Development, Cognition, and Motor Control
Language: English
Release Date: December 6, 2012
the mass of experimental data from current research in psychology and physiology, Grossberg proposes and develops a non-linear mathematics as a model for specific functions of mind and brain. He finds the classic approach to the mathematical modelling of mind and brain systematically inadequate. This...

The endocannabinoid system consists of cannabinoid receptors, their endogenous lipid ligands (endocannabinoids) and the enzymatic machinery for their synthesis and degradation. In the brain, endocannabinoids regulate ion channel activity and neurotransmitter release and thereby contribute to various...
Sentic Computing
A Common-Sense-Based Framework for Concept-Level Sentiment Analysis
Language: English
Release Date: December 11, 2015
This volume presents a knowledge-based approach to concept-level sentiment analysis at the crossroads between affective computing, information extraction, and common-sense computing, which exploits both computer and social sciences to better interpret and process information on the Web.
Concept-level...
