A research team has uncovered a fundamental principle of how the brain prioritizes vision and hearing differently depending on whether we are still or in motion. The study provides new insights into ...

Over the past decades, computer scientists have introduced numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems designed to emulate the organization and functioning of networks of neurons in the brain.

Humans and other animals gradually learn what sounds or other sensory cues in their surroundings are meaningful or potentially threatening. Via a process known as habituation, they gradually learn to ...
