A new theoretical study argues that many standard beliefs about consciousness are rooted in a misleading concept of how the ...

The familiar fight between “mind as software” and “mind as biology” may be a false choice. This work proposes biological computationalism: the idea that brains compute, but not in the abstract, symbol ...

A new theoretical framework argues that the long-standing split between computational functionalism and biological naturalism misses how real brains actually compute.

The consciousness debate is often trapped between two extremes: either the brain is “just software” (computational ...

Algorithms for polynomial computation over finite fields form a crucial domain in computational mathematics, with extensive applications ranging from cryptography and ...

Conventional computers use bits, represented by zeros and ones, to transmit information, whereas quantum computers use quantum bits (qubits) instead. Similar to bits, qubits have two main states or ...

A new technique allows complex interactions in materials to be simulated using Monte Carlo simulations thousands of times faster than before.

Maximal Output Admissible Sets (MOAS) are the set of all initial states and references such that the output response is always constraint admissible. Introduced in [1], the MOAS holds a special place ...

At the intersection of neuroscience and artificial intelligence (AI) is an alternative approach to deep learning. Evolutionary algorithms (EA) are a subset of evolutionary computation—algorithms that ...
