Associative Learning Should Go Deep.

Trends in cognitive sciences Jun 28, 2017
Conditioning, how animals learn to associate two or more events, is one of the most influential paradigms in learning theory. It is nevertheless unclear how current models of associative learning can accommodate complex phenomena without ad hoc repre...

Reliability of an automatic classifier for brain enlarged perivascular spaces burden and comparison with human performance.

Clinical science (London, England : 1979) Jun 28, 2017
In the brain, enlarged perivascular spaces (PVS) relate to cerebral small vessel disease (SVD), poor cognition, inflammation and hypertension. We propose a fully automatic scheme that uses a support vector machine (SVM) to classify the burden of PVS ...
