Neuroscience, neural computation, and artificial intelligence constitute an integrative research area that investigates the principles of information processing in nervous systems and applies them to computational models and algorithms. It encompasses the study of neural coding, synaptic plasticity, network dynamics, and cognitive architectures, with the dual goals of explaining brain function and developing biologically inspired machine learning methods. Neural computation formalizes neuronal and circuit-level processes using mathematical models and simulations, while artificial intelligence leverages these insights to design architectures such as neural networks and reinforcement learning systems, enabling tasks like perception, decision-making, and control in both biological and artificial agents.
With the advent of Big Data, current computational architectures are proving to be insufficient. Difficulties in decreasing transistors' size, large power consumption and limited operating speeds make neuromorphic computing ...
