Is brain learning slower than artificial intelligence? Read on to know wha
Updated : 6 hours, 21 min ago IST
Artificial intelligence has traditionally been derived from human brain dynamics. However, as compared to deep learning, brain learning has several important limitations (DL). First, efficient DL wire topologies (architectures) have several tens of feedforward (consecutive) layers, whereas b
