Of the Evolution of the Brainby Allessandro Treves, Yasser Roudi - SISSA
We review the common themes, the network models and the mathematical formalism underlying our studies about different stages in the evolution of the human brain. These studies discuss the evolution of cortical networks in terms of their computations.
