Remarks on neurocybernetics and its links to computing science. To the memory of Prof. Luigi M. Ricciardi

Remarks on the development of Cybernetics

By examining the epistemological problems behind the historical development of Cybernetics, the aim is to acquire some useful tools for a better understanding of the current state of some of the theories and disciplines, related to information processing, which evolved out of that explosion of innovative ideas and which in the 1950s combined and gave rise to the birth of novel and interesting paths of investigation.

Adaptive networks for robotics and the emergence of reward anticipatory circuits

This thesis proposes a formal model of functional integration, encompassing locomotion and sequence learning, and presents some ideas on how the co-evolution of GasNet and reward adaptive circuits might lead to significant improvements in the synthesis of agents capable of exhibiting complex adaptive behaviour.

Fuzziness and social life: Informal notions, formal definitions

A clear bidirectional path exists between everyday social and cultural life and the formal notions of uncertainty. If in recent times there has been a resurgence of the contribution of the formal…

Qualitative analysis of NET‐BOWTIE risk model of dehydration and dehydrocarbon station based on improved compression algorithm

This model has been used in the field of dehydration and degassing stations of the DND Gas Field and the corrosion reliability of the northeastern Sichuan gas mine and the data storage space saving of the improved compression algorithm is validated.

What the Frog's Eye Tells the Frog's Brain

The results show that for the most part within that area of the optic nerve of a frog, it is not the light intensity itself but rather the pattern of local variation of intensity that is the exciting factor.

How we know universals; the perception of auditory and visual forms.

Two neural mechanisms are described which exhibit recognition of forms. Both are independent of small perturbations at synapses of excitation, threshold, and synchrony, and are referred to partiular…
