The neocortex comprises the largest part of the cerebral cortex and is the outermost layer that covers the structures of the brain. Comprised of four main lobes with specific functions, the cortex ...

If you were going to build an electronic brain in 2022, it might look something like the Neocortex supercomputer at the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center at Carnegie Mellon University. That machine, ...

The neocortex stands out as a stunning achievement of biological evolution. All mammals have this swath of tissue covering their brain, and the six layers of densely packed neurons within it handle ...

What makes us human? According to neurobiologists it is our neocortex. This outer layer of the brain is rich in neurons and lets us do abstract thinking, create art, and speak complex languages. An ...

The neocortex is the largest and most complex part of the brain and has long been considered the ultimate storage site for long-term memories. But how are traces of past events and experiences laid ...

Researchers have combined two high profile, large-scale datasets to produce something completely new -- a first draft model of the rules guiding neuron-to-neuron connectivity of a whole mouse ...

Over the next year, we should get a good sense of how the Cerebras CS-1 system performs for dual HPC and AI workloads between installations at Argonne and Lawrence Livermore labs, EPCC, and the ...
