The brain is a context machine
Danko Nikolić
; Max-Planck Institute for Brain Research
Abstract
A thesis is presented that the basic operational principle of the brain is to process each input in relation to the context in which it occurs—in space and time. The brain has evolved such that it knows no better or more fundamental approach to computation but contextual comparisons. A brain without context would be a whole another system, with a mind nothing like that of a human.
