Navigating Unmanned Surface Vessels with Neural Networks

Imagine a group of lively sailors working together to navigate their boats across the vast ocean. In a similar way, this paper explores how multiple unmanned surface vessels can be controlled using neural networks and a reconfigurable hierarchical control system. The goal is to synchronize these vessels through a containment control system that converts the […]

Unearthing the Mysteries of Memory Processing in the Brain’s Directed Graphs

The brain, like a vast interconnected web of information, constantly challenges memory researchers who seek to understand how it encodes, stores, and retrieves information. While cognitive psychology and neurobiology provide some insights into memory mechanisms, there is still much left to uncover. Researchers grapple with characterizing and distributing content within biological neural networks, coexisting information […]
