NEURODIMENSION INC

NeuroSolutions provides an object-oriented simulation environment for neural network design and application. It has quickly evolved into the software tool of choice for both the neural network beginner and expert alike.
This leading edge software combines a modular, icon-based network design interface with an implementation of advanced learning procedures, such as recurrent backpropagation and backpropagation through time.
The result is a virtually unconstrained environment for designing neural networks to solve real-world problems such as financial forecasting, pattern recognition, process control, targeting marketing, and many more.
NeuroSolutions is based on the concept that neural networks can be broken down into a fundamental set of neural components. By allowing the user to arbitrarily interconnect these components, a virtually infinite number of neural models can be constructed
Neural components, such as axons, synapses, and gradient search engines, are laid out on a graphical breadboard and connected together to form a neural network. Input components are used to inject signals, and probe components are used to visualize the network’s response.
Creating neural networks is fast and easy with NeuroSolutions. Let the NeuralExpert create and customize a neural network for your type of application. Or, let the NeuralBuilder build a neural network topology to your specifications. Plus, enjoy the flexibility of being able to create neural networks directly from palettes of customizable components or modifying existing designs
Do you have a specific problem that you would like to solve with neural networks? Let the NeuralExpert design and customize a neural network topology around your data and the solution you would like to find. The NeuralExpert eliminates the need to know which type of topology is best for your problem type by selecting the right design for your application and customizing it to your needs
The icon-based user interface of NeuroSolutions provides unprecedented design flexibility for constructing a neural network. This level of access normally requires that you have a substantial amount of neural network knowledge. The NeuralBuilder eliminates this requirement by hiding the complexities of the network and simplifying the design process down to an easy, step-by-step procedure
Simply select a neural model, and then answer a few questions about its configuration parameters. The NeuralBuilder will compute default values for each parameter based on your input data. These default values will typically produce a network that is capable of solving your problem. However, the real power of NeuroSolutions is the level of access provided to you for parameter optimization. All of the parameters of the constructed network can be completely customized

Neurochips: Combining brain tissue with electronics

" English is the most widely spoken language in the history of our planet, used in some way by at least one out of every seven human beings around the globe. Half of the world's books are written in English, and the majority of international telephone calls are made in English. Sixty percent of the world's radio programs are beamed in English, and more than seventy percent of international mail is written and addressed in English. Eighty percent of all computer texts, including all web sites, are stored in English.
English has acquired the largest vocabulary of all the world's languages, perhaps as many as two million words, and has generated one of the noblest bodies of literature in the annals of the human race.
The scientists layered a thin section of rat brain hippocampus on top of a semiconductor with 16,384 sensory transistors per square millimeter. hippocampus. In March of 2006, nanofiress were used as scaffolding to allow damaged nerves to regrow In another breakthrough, researchers have devised a way to use carbon .nanotubes to actually send electrical signals to indivisuals nerve cellsBased on the above technologies, it seems we now have ways to not only record brain cell activity, but also to stimulate and modulate the activity of individual brain cells.
