BUT EVEN then, more complexity may mean more noise (and having TOO many local dendrites may interfere with efficient *global* processing [eg long-distance bullet trains]) https://fluidity.center/do-the-thing ==== Dendritic spine shrinkage is different from neurons getting damaged over time (it's a double-whammy, but rate of shrinkage seems way higher than what can be explained by neuron damage alone). mad.science.blog has more to say on this (tho he discounts the role of neuron damage) ==== way more distally related: http://eplex.cs.ucf.edu/hyperNEATpage/HyperNEAT.html Edited January 23 by InquilineKea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
