  1. 1. Neural correlates of emotion recognition in psychopaths : A systematic review

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Jenna Norlin; Rendek Saadula; [2023]
    Keywords : Psychopathy; emotion recognition; brain; psychopathy checklist-revised; emotion processing;

    Abstract : Science has recently begun showing interest in the different mechanisms of the psychopathic brain, and current scientific research points to deficits in the structural and functional brain regions of psychopaths. Psychopathy is a disorder distinguished by its persistent antisocial behavior, emotional callousness, grandiose self-estimation, and lack of empathy. READ MORE

  3. 2. The impact of prebiotics, probiotics, and synbiotics on mild cognitive impairment : a systematic review

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaper

    Author : Astrid Viktorsson; Noah Westerholm; [2023]
    Keywords : MCI; Mild cognitive Impairment; Prebiotics; Probiotics; Synbiotics; DW2009; Bifidobacterium Breve A1; RBANS; MMSE.;

    Abstract : Background: Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is seen as a state between normal aging and dementia, with patients having an increased risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other sorts of dementia. MCI has been linked to a change in gut microbiota which impacts the microbiota-gut-brain axis (MGBA), consequently affecting neurological functions. READ MORE

  4. 3. Trainable Region of Interest Prediction: Hard Attention Framework for Hardware-Efficient Event-Based Computer Vision Neural Networks on Neuromorphic Processors

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Cina Arjmand; [2023]
    Keywords : Artifical Intelligence; Machine Learning; Neuromorphic Engineering; Computer Vision; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Neuromorphic processors are a promising new type of hardware for optimizing neural network computation using biologically-inspired principles. They can effectively leverage information sparsity such as in images from event-based cameras, and are well-adapted to processing event-based data in an energy-efficient fashion. READ MORE

  5. 4. Hierarchical Clustering using Brain-like Recurrent Attractor Neural Networks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Hannah Kühn; [2023]
    Keywords : Hierarchical Clustering; Attractor Network; Recurrent Neural Network; Brain-like computing; Hierarkisk klustring; Anlockningsnätverk; Återkommande neurala nätverk; Hjärnliknande databehandling;

    Abstract : Hierarchical clustering is a family of machine learning methods that has many applications, amongst other data science and data mining. This thesis belongs to the research area of brain-like computing and introduces a novel approach to hierarchical clustering using a brain-like recurrent neural network. READ MORE

  6. 5. The Structural Brain Correlates of Psychopathy and Violent Crime

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Zaynab Abas Hashmi; Wilma Pettersson; [2023]
    Keywords : Psychopathy; Antisocial personality disorder; Violent crime; Magnetic resonance imaging;

    Abstract : Psychopathy is a frequently reported personality trait among violent offenders, and psychopaths have a higher rate of recidivism than inmates without psychopathic features. This systematic review aimed to investigate whether structural brain differences, measured with magnetic resonance imaging, are observed in violent offenders with psychopathy compared to violent offenders without psychopathy or healthy non-violent controls.
