AI model reveals links between structural and functional brain characteristics

University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom
In this study, the researchers have demonstrated that putting physical constrains on an artificially intelligent system, similarly to how the human brain develops and functions within physical and biological constraints, enables it to develop features of complex organisms’ brains to solve problems. They created an artificial system aimed at modelling a simplified version of the brain and applied physical constraints. The system developed some key characteristics like those found in human brains. This AI system may start to uncover how these constraints shape differences between people’s brains and impact the differences observed in people experiencing cognitive or mental health difficulties.
