Neurocomputational Theory

Neurocomputational Theory posits that our minds operate like complex computer systems, processing information through neural networks, similar to how computer algorithms work. It suggests that cognitive functions—such as thinking, learning, and memory—arise from the interactions of neurons in the brain, akin to how software runs on hardware. This theory connects neuroscience and cognitive science, illustrating how mental processes can be understood through computational models, ultimately bridging the gap between biological brain function and computational methods used in artificial intelligence.
