792.
Scientists have developed a computer _________ that mimics human brain's neural networks, and would overcome the speed and power consumption problems of conventional supercomputers?
Simunoid
SpiNNaker
Rapidex
EXpro
Answer: Option
Explanation:
SpiNNaker is a custom-built computer. It generated similar results similar to that of the best brain-simulation supercomputer software used at present for neural-signalling research. This system would help to advance our knowledge of neural processing in the brain, to include learning and disorders like epilepsy and Alzheimer's disease. A researcher from the Julich Research Centre in Germany, said that, SpiNNaker can support detailed biological models of the cortex.
