Fear conditioning biases olfactory sensory neuron frequencies across generations

Olfactory fear conditioning biases olfactory stem cell receptor fate, increasing the frequency by which maturing neurons express the receptor of the paired odor and changing the representation of the ...

Stimulus dependencies—rather than next-word prediction—can explain pre-onset brain encoding in naturalistic listening designs

The ability to predict brain activity from words before they occur can be explained by information shared between neighbouring words, without requiring next-word prediction by the brain.

Understanding tokenization and consumption in LLMs

At the core of these advancements lies the concept of tokenization — a fundamental process that dictates how user inputs are interpreted, processed and ultimately billed. Understanding tokenization is ...

Deep learning reveals how auditory cortex neurons split up natural sound coding

Over the past decades, computer scientists have introduced numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems designed to emulate the organization and functioning of networks of neurons in the brain.
