Monkey brain was simulated on a computer Chinese programmers

Monkey brain, Chinese researchers say, II analyzed. The resulting scheme was turned into a set of chips. Such a computer, the Chinese hope, will think like Macau.

The monkey brain embodied in a computer model, writes Xrust, consists of 960 chips. Each supports more than 2 billion of impulse neurons and more than 100 billion synapses, which is approaching the neurons in the brain of Makaki.

Recall, the human brain contains 150 billion neurons. Everyone has 100 thousand ~ 1.5 million ties.

The researchers called the project «Darwin Monkey» and claim that this is a step towards a more advanced intellect, such a brain. It is reported that this is the largest brain-like, or “neuromorphic”, computer and first, based on neuromorphic chips.

The human brain is next in line? Return to the previous paragraph.
