The Spiking Neural Network (SNN) offers a unique approach to simulating the brain’s functions, making it a key focus in modern neuromorphic computing research. Unlike traditional neural networks, SNNs operate on discrete, event-driven signals, aligning more closely with biological processes.The Spiking Neural Network (SNN) offers a unique approach to simulating the brain’s functions, making it a key focus in modern neuromorphic computing research.

Noise-canceling headphones have gotten very good at creating an auditory blank slate. But allowing certain sounds from a wearer’s environment through the erasure still challenges researchers. The latest edition of Apple’s AirPods Pro, for instance, automatically adjusts sound levels for wearers—sensing when they’re in conversation, for instance—but the user has little control over whom to listen to or when this happens.Noise-canceling headphones have gotten very good at creating an auditory blank slate.

Over 2,000 years ago, the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle came up with a way to build arguments. He called this “rhetoric” and described how logic in the text of an argument or speech, the needs and understanding of the audience, and the authority of the speaker could be used as strategies to persuade others.Over 2,000 years ago, the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle came up with a way to build arguments.
