From Neuron to Cognition via Computational Neuroscience (Arbib Michael A. (University Professor))(Pevná vazba)

A comprehensive, integrated, and accessible textbook presenting core neuroscientific topics from a computational perspective, tracing a path from cells and circuits to behavior and cognition.This textbook presents a wide range of subjects in neuroscience from a computational perspective. It offers a comprehensive, integrated introduction to core topics, using computational tools to trace a path from neurons and circuits to behavior and cognition. Moreover, the chapters show how computational neuroscience--methods for modeling the causal interactions underlying neural systems--complements empirical research in advancing the understanding of brain and behavior. The chapters--all by leaders in the field, and carefully integrated by the editors--cover such subjects as action and motor control; neuroplasticity, neuromodulation, and reinforcement learning; vision; and
