Dissecting AI to Better Understand the Human Brain
At the 25th annual meeting of the Cognitive Neuroscience Society (CNS), researchers presented their work in which cognitive neuroscientists are increasingly using emerging artificial networks to enhance their understanding of one of the most elusive intelligence systems, the human brain. Among the work presented at the symposium at the CNS annual meeting held in Boston from March 24-27, 2018, was “Human and machine cognition: The deep learning challenge” by Aude Oliva of MIT. In Oliva’s work, neuroscientists are learning much about the role of contextual clues in human image recognition. By using “artificial neurons” – essentially lines of code, software – with neural network models, they can parse out the various elements that go into recognizing a specific place or object.

Top 3 Trends Impacting Global X-Ray Detector Market
The global X-ray detectors market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.6% from USD 2.53 billion in 2017 to USD 3.31 billion by 2022, driven mainly by increasing public and private investments in digital imaging technologies, declining prices and benefits offered by digital detectors, and reimbursement cuts for analog X-rays. However, the high cost of digital X-ray systems may limit the market growth to some extent. Nevertheless, the introduction of wireless X-ray detectors, growing medical tourism in the developing countries and numerous growth avenues in the emerging markets will provide opportunities for the global X-ray detectors market.
