Neural Network Without Weights

[edit]

IMO the article should point out that without knowing the weighting that each synapse has, the connectome could not be used to build a simulation of a working brain. New Thought (talk) 12:00, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a neuroscientist who works in this exact area. I added information about what may be needed to simulate, along with a reference. This is a reference to my own work, which is allowed, but should be checked by other editors. LouScheffer (talk) 17:18, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Boghog: You have been told many times over many years that other editors do not agree to your violations of WP:CITEVAR. Invasive Spices (talk) 20:25, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Shall we return to "author1 AND author2 AND author3 AND author4" style? Boghog (talk) 20:50, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Direct references for adult brain and male adult nerve cord.

[edit]

While I appreciate that bioRxiv is not peer reviewed, and not in general a reliable source, these two projects (full female adult brain, and male nerve cord) are reliably sourced, just not by the bioRxiv pre-print alone. So I changed the references to the data web sites, where the reader can verify for themselves that the data is really available (seeing the data yourself is even more reliable than a peer-reviewed article stating it's available, in my opinion). I left in the links to the bioRxiv articles, with explicit notation that this is a pre-print. Comments welcome, LouScheffer (talk) 14:39, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
