Neurons as autoencoders (2024)
Journal Article

This letter presents the idea that neural backpropagation is exploiting dendritic processing to enable individual neurons to perform autoencoding. Using a very simple connection weight search heuristic and artificial neural network model, the effects... Read More about Neurons as autoencoders.

On recombination (2024)
Journal Article

The predominant explanations for the inclusion of chromosomal recombination during meiosis are either that it serves as a mechanism for repair or for increased adaptability. However, neither gives a clear immediate selective advantage to the reproduc... Read More about On recombination.

Consistency of XAI models against medical expertise: An assessment protocol (2024)
