Computational Modeling of
Cognitive Activity
Prof. Larry M. Manevitz
Course Slides: 2012
• Aim of Course: To view some of the methods
and results of Cognitive and Brain Modeling
– What is it good for?
– What does it replace?
• Aim of Course: To understand how machine
learning methods could help understand
cognition and Brain Function
Some Cognitive Tasks
• Memory
– Declarative
– Procedural
– Associative
•

Decision Making
Pattern Identification
Language
Speech
Reading
…
• What is the brain?
• What is cognition?
– We can think of brain activity as a computation.
– Can we do “reverse engineering”?
– Can we explain activity?
• Many approaches
– Physiological Explanations
– Computational Explanations
– Cognitive Explanations
Related Fields, Related Methods?
• Neurophysiology
– Cell Structure
– System Biology
• Cognitive Psychology
– Psychophysical Experiments
 Important Tools
 fMRI
 EEG
 Others …
• We have several tools from CS that can help us
– Successfully model cognitive activity
– Successfully explore activity in vivo (i.e. in a
person…)
What tools are appropriate?
Basic Structure of Neural System
• From work of Cajal (as opposed to Golgi), the
neural system is separated into discrete cells.
• So we need to understand at least
– Computational aspect of separate cells
– Computational aspect of network of cells
• Let’s start with the simplest model.
• The neural system is known to be cellular.
That means there is not continuous connections
(like an electric wire) but discrete elements.
Examples of Neurons
Neuron Stains
• Let’s start in 1948. McCullough Pitts. Want
to understand how the brain works.
• Their view: all there is, is Boolean functions.
• Note: Same view as logicians as old as Boole
(1898)
