Signal processing algorithms, architectures, and systems are at the heart of modern technologies that generate, transform, and interpret information across applications as diverse as communications, ...

Scientists at Kessler Foundation reported results from a randomized controlled trial examining the influence of processing speed on treatment benefits of the Kessler Foundation modified Story Memory ...

Handwriting notes in class might seem like an anachronism as smartphones and other digital technology subsume every aspect of learning across schools and universities. But a steady stream of research ...

Brain exercises may help boost and maintain brain function. Memory games, learning new skills, crosswords, and even video games may help. Certain activities may help boost brain function and ...

Memory is not a recording device. It doesn't play back events like a video camera would. Instead, it's a remarkably active, ...

Theoretical physicists use machine-learning algorithms to speed up difficult calculations and eliminate untenable theories—but could they transform what it means to make discoveries? Theoretical ...

Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) explains how learning is influenced by the limited capacity of working memory. By understanding and managing different types of cognitive load, faculty can design more ...

Sitting on the Marine Atlantic ferry, I’m watching the Newfoundland skyline disappear on the horizon as I type away. I see the rocking of the ocean waves, inhale its salty breeze, feel and hear the ...

Our brains may work best when teetering on the edge of chaos. A new theory suggests that criticality a sweet spot between order and randomness is the secret to learning, memory, and adaptability. When ...
