Single Cortical Neurons as Deep Artificial Neural Networks

On 3 Sep, 2021 By admin 0 Comments

September, 2021

Highlights

• Cortical neurons are well approximated by a deep neural network (DNN) with 5–8 layers

• DNN’s depth arises from the interaction between NMDA receptors and dendritic morphology

• Dendritic branches can be conceptualized as a set of spatiotemporal pattern detectors

• We provide a unified method to assess the computational complexity of any neuron type

DoWhy: Addressing Challenges in Expressing and Validating Causal Assumptions

On 25 Aug, 2021 By admin 0 Comments

DSA ADS Course - 2021

DoWhy, Causal Assumptions, Causal Inference, Causal Data Science, Machine Learning

Discuss successful application of causal inference techniques.  As computing systems are more frequently and more actively intervening in societally critical domains such as healthcare, education, and governance, it is critical to correctly predict and understand the causal effects of these interventions. Without an A/B test, conventional machine learning methods, built on pattern recognition and correlational analyses, are insufficient for decision-making.
