Abstract: We encoded a chaotic time series produced by the logistic map as delays between adjacent stimulation pulses and used in vitro neural networks reservoirs combined with ridge regression to ...

Summary: The line between biology and computer science just got even blurrier. Researchers have successfully trained living rat neurons to perform complex machine learning tasks. The study integrated ...

A collaborative research group has shown that biological neurons can be trained to perform a temporal pattern learning task that was previously carried out by artificial systems. (Nanowerk News) A ...

(a) Conventional neuron models used in reservoir computing. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) comprise of neuron models that sum up weighted inputs, filter the value through an activation function, ...

Neural organoids have been heralded as having huge potential for advancing our knowledge of the brain in several fields. These include exploring the responses of brain tissue to drugs, investigating ...

Scientists have trained a computer made from living human neurons to play the classic video game Doom, marking a strange but important step forward in biological computing. Researchers at Australian ...

Recent technological advances have opened new exciting possibilities for the development of smart prosthetics, such as artificial limbs, joints or organs that can replace injured, damaged or amputated ...

Summary: For the first time, scientists can record the full “electrical dialogue” occurring across an entire lab-grown human organoid. While these “mini-brains” are powerful tools for studying ...

The various types of BoCI are illustrated. The various types of BoCIs are introduced, including planar and stereoelectrode-based methods. The former primarily relies on low-density or high-density ...

Abstract: An array of platinum electrodes has been integrated with analog and digital circuitry in standard CMOS technology for stimulation and recording of natural neural networks. The array utilizes ...

The technology is still in its infancy. But its trajectory suggests that ethical conversations may become pressing far sooner than expected. These “biocomputers” are still in their early days. They ...
