Description
A survey of computational methods commonly used to model brain function, including mathematical modeling to describe the relationship between neuronal activity and perception, action, and cognition. Mathematical basis for vision, motor
control and attention. Data relevant to brain processes and models explaining these data, using engineering, statistics and artificial intelligence.
