Learning Complexity

In the last chapter of his book Networks of the Brain , Olaf Sporns extends his neural processing and, thus, cognition beyond the brain and ...

You might think that complex systems are complicated, but they often aren't. That may be a bit too cutesy, but it does make a nice disti...

Sporns says that "brain connectivity is organized on a hierarchy of scales from local circuits of neurons to modules of functional brai...

So the brain is a dynamic system, if Sporns is correct. How does this dynamism arise? I've just reread the chapter, and I confess that I...

In Chapters 12 and 13 of Networks of the Brain , Olaf Sporns tackles the issues of dynamics and complexity in neural networks. I have the fe...

If you are like me, then you don't have too much trouble imagining cognition as a network phenomenon: all thoughts, visions, dreams, cal...

In Chapter 9 of Sporns' book Networks and the Brain , I think we reach the heart of the issue for the discussion about Connectivism. In ...
