A critical function performed by visual systems is the fast and reliable detection of features within the environment, such as moving objects or approaching threats. Neurons predicted to encode these ...

New research shows that the prefrontal cortex doesn’t simply broadcast generic commands to sensory regions—it sends finely tailored signals that shape how the brain processes vision depending on ...

Motion is characterized by a series of positions an object traverses over time. An object presented sequentially at two positions, with a time delay between them, is sufficient for us to perceive ...

This article explains how to programmatically encode categorical data for use with a machine learning (ML) prediction model such as a neural network classification or regression system. Suppose you ...

There are dozens of types of encoding. The type of encoding to use depends on several factors, including specific ML library being used (such as PyTorch or scikit-learn), and whether a value is a ...
