Abstract
The overarching goal of cognitive and computational brain science is to develop a research discipline that unifies the perspectives offered by neuroscience, psychology, artificial intelligence (AI), and computational modeling on how information is processed in brains for behaviorally relevant purposes as well as how this processing changes over time with experience. Computational neuroscience makes use of mathematical models to simulate and understand how neural circuits may implement behavior or cognition, focusing primarily on the brain at a microscopic scale (including both cellular–biological properties as well as small network organizations). The practical and theoretical aspects are always intertwined in cognitive and computational brain science and the findings expedite the advancement in technology and medicine by opening the door to ways of interacting with the brain, creating intelligent systems, and treating neurological disorders. Thus, it ...
