  1. 6. Body patterning and cognition in cephalopods - a literature review

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Georgina Chu; [2023]
    Keywords : cephalopods; octopus; body patterning; colour alteration; chromatophores; pigment cells; cognition; learning and memory;

    Abstract : Cephalopods are a valuable model for studying the evolution of cognition due to their distinctive brain structure, organisation, and connectivity patterns compared to vertebrates. The development of large brains and behavioural complexities are believed to be triggered by evolutionary pressures stemming from factors like heightened predation, more demanding foraging conditions, and intense mating competition.

  3. 7. The Neural Correlates of Emotional Intelligence : A Systematic Review

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Anne Agnvall; Reza Unessi; [2023]
    Keywords : emotional intelligence; ability emotional intelligence; strategic emotional intelligence; experiential emotional intelligence; MSCEIT;

    Abstract : Emotional intelligence (EI) lies at the intersection of emotion and cognition and is seen as beneficial to our relationships and well-being. Yet, there is a gap in knowledge regarding the neural correlates of EI. There are three prevailing models defining the psychological construct of EI, the trait model, the ability model, and the mixed model. READ MORE

  4. 8. Assessing the Streamline Plausibility Through Convex Optimization for Microstructure Informed Tractography(COMMIT) with Deep Learning

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Xinyi Wan; [2023]
    Keywords : Tractography; dMRI; Filtering Methods; Deep Learning; Classification;

    Abstract : Tractography is widely used in the brain connectivity study from diffusion magnetic resonance imaging data. However, lack of ground truth and plenty of anatomically implausible streamlines in the tractograms have caused challenges and concerns in the use of tractograms such as brain connectivity study.

  5. 9. Persistent Homology : A Modern Application of Algebraic Topology in Data Analysis

    University essay from

    Author : Staffan Leijnse; [2023]
    Keywords : Data; Algebraic Topology; Persistent; Homology; Graded; Representation;

    Abstract : Topological data analysis emerged as a field in the 2000s and has proven very useful for examining the shape of data sets. Using persistent homology as their main methodology researchers has succesfully applied the theory presented in this paper to study as varied subjects as robot motion, brain connectivity, network theory, finger print analysis and computer vision.

  6. 10. Optimization over nonnegative matrix polynomials

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Daniel Cederberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Proximal methods; nonnegative polynomials; Bregman proximal operator; Itakura-Saito distance; spectral estimation; functional connectivity analysis.;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with convex optimization problems over matrix polynomials that are constrained to be positive semidefinite on the unit circle. Problems of this form appear in signal processing and can often be solved as semidefinite programs (SDPs). READ MORE
