Tapping the brain orchestra

Researchers have developed a new method to analyze electrical activity in the brain, enabling better diagnosis and treatment of brain illnesses. The technique can help identify impending seizures and paralysis, allowing for more effective interventions.

Archivist in the sound library

Scientists at LMU Munich developed a mathematical model that accurately mimics human sound recognition, showing the brain compares stored and perceived sounds efficiently. The new library-based model predicts the flow of information from cerebrum to thalamus, enabling highly efficient real-time implementation.

A walking robot goes mountaineering

A walking robot, RunBot, has been engineered to mimic human gait and adapt to different environments, including mountainous terrain. The robot's ability to learn from trial and error allows it to adjust its gait in response to visual input, ensuring stability and balance on slopes.
