Brain Operating System - Brain OS
Computational Neuroscience
These indicate that the brain is organised in a highly distributed and decentralised way, with control acting on a local as well as on a global basis.
Accordingly, we investigate the processing principles of the brain at different levels of description, ranging from very detailed networks of spiking neurons to models comprising several specialised brain areas that interact on a system level.
Our three main areas of research are
- On the most detailed level, we investigate which properties of nerve cells and neural dynamics are quintessential for brain function.
- On a more functional level, we investigate the active role of visual processes and memory required for scene understanding.
- On a third level, we study how the brain learns visual objects and builds up a sensory representation in a self-organised way.
