The Institute for Neural Computation (INC) is an organized research unit of the University of California at San Diego with 44 members representing 14 research disciplines, devoted to the research and development of a new generation of massively parallel computers through a coherent and cohesive plan of research spanning the areas of neuroscience, visual science, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, mathematics, economics and social science, and computer engineering. Researchers are addressing the twin scientific and engineering challenges of understanding how humans function at the neural and cognitive levels and solving major technological problems related to neural network implementations.
The Institute is the home of Neural Computation, a journal founded by Dr. Terrence Sejnowski and published by the MIT press, dedicated to reporting the latest developments in this exciting field. INC is a leading center in the field of neural computation, initiating joint research projects, providing special facilities for carrying out research, coordinating the training of young investigators, and offering special activities through its Industrial Affiliates Program.
