Pattern Recognition: Computers and Human Communications A computer's ability to track and interpret the types of input humans use to communicate - gestures, words and facial expressions - is not enough. Meaning is often conveyed by a combination of different types of sensory input. Words and gestures, for example, can go together to produce meaning that cannot be determined from simply examining the inputs separately. |

Glimpsing Inside a Moving Fruit Fly's Brain Vivek Jayaraman wants to capture, in real time, how the fly's brain responds to a changing environment. Ultimately, he hopes to uncover very basic patterns -- "algorithms" -- of fly brain activity that hold true in more complex brains including, presumably, ours. |
