Engineers at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst have developed an artificial neuron like no other. In experiments, their newly created model was able to directly communicate with a biological ...

The brains of humans and other primates are known to execute various sophisticated functions, one of which is the representation of the space immediately surrounding the body. This area, also ...

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These devices emulate how neurons use chemicals to transmit and process signals, ...

Some scientists are wondering if we could mimic the energy-efficient processes of the human brain to improve AI systems. A new study successfully used an aerosol jet printer to create artificial ...

Create an account to access more content and features on IEEE Spectrum, including the ability to save articles to read later, download Spectrum Collections, and participate in conversations with ...

Northwestern University researchers have taken a step toward bridging electronics and the human brain with a new class of printed artificial neurons. These devices can actively stimulate real brain ...

Artificial neurons modeled on biology learn independently, self-organizing and adapting based on information from their local network environment. (Nanowerk News) Novel artificial neurons learn ...

McGill University researchers have developed a light-detecting nanoscale structure that mimics how a neuron processes information. The neuron-like behavior emerges from the materials themselves, ...

A team at Carnegie Mellon University is helping kids understand artificial intelligence with a soft, squishy, LED-lit neural network. "Everyone, even middle schoolers, needs to know a little about ...

Living neurons receive signals from different sources, process them and pass an output signal on to other neurons (left). In the artificial neuron model, this information processing can be described ...
