Most "agent memory" is a vector store: embed text, do nearest-neighbour search, done. That captures similarity but not plasticity — it doesn't model how a memory's value changes as it is used, ...

Every experience we have changes our brain, the way a ceramicist reshapes a slab of clay. Every corner we turn, every conversation we have, every shudder we feel causes cascading effects: Chemicals ...

Abstract: Plasticity is key to the trainability of neural networks and has long been a focus in the field of brain-inspired research. Currently, neuromorphic networks primarily achieve plasticity ...

For much of modern history, the brain was seen as largely fixed by the end of childhood. Intelligence, personality, and ability were believed to follow a mostly predetermined biological path.

Abstract: Bayesian inference provides a methodology for parameter estimation and uncertainty quantification in machine learning and deep learning methods. Variational inference and Markov Chain ...

Cancer plasticity refers to the remarkable ability of cancer cells to alter their identity, function, and behavior in response to environmental stressors or therapeutic pressures. This dynamic trait ...

Your brain doesn t just send messages through one universal route it uses separate pathways for spontaneous activity and signals linked to learning. These findings overturn a major neuroscience ...

Your brain is constantly evolving. Throughout your life, it reshapes, adjusts, and grows stronger in response to learning, new experiences, and your habits. This amazing shape-shifting ability is ...

Robbie has been an avid gamer for well over 20 years. During that time, he's watched countless franchises rise and fall. He's a big RPG fan but dabbles in a little bit of everything. Writing about ...

Synaptic plasticity—carefully regulated changes in the strength of the synaptic connections between neurons—is the currency of learning. However, synaptic plasticity is not itself learning. Synaptic ...

An experimental ‘no-GIL’ build mode in Python 3.13 disables the Global Interpreter Lock to enable true parallel execution in Python. Here’s where to start. The single biggest new feature in Python ...
