Neuroscience for Artificial Intelligence

“Starting with brain evolution and leading up to singing, talking, causality, and mastering space and time: This is an impressive holistic view on brain functions. In concentrated form, the book deals with sensory systems, age-related changes, memory, sleep and cognitive functions, including arithmetics and reading. It is an extensive review on experimental results from the last decades. A fascinating book.”

~Dr Almut Schüz, Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics, Tübingen, Germany

“This remarkable book succinctly illustrates the contemporary notions of neuroscience by connecting them to the recent literature and is intelligible to even readers without a background in biology. The book will help AI researchers efficiently learn the organization of the brain, role of dendritic spines as memory elements, searching for memory space by hashing and oscillation, generative adversarial network (GAN) for mastering space and time, and coordination of arithmetic operation and multiple cognitive tasks.”
