The ability to precisely predict movements is essential not only for humans and animals, but also for many AI applications—from autonomous driving to robotics. Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have now discovered that artificial neural networks can perform this task better when trained with biological data from early visual system development.The ability to precisely predict movements is essential not only for humans and animals, but also for many AI applications—from autonomous driving to robotics.
