Authors Schneider AC, Neuhaus V, Ehrlich DA, Makkeh A, Ecker AS, Priesemann V, Wibral M Journal Arxiv Citation arXiv:2412.02482. Abstract In modern deep neural networks, the learning dynamics of the individual neurons is often obscure, as the networks are trained via global optimization. Conversely, biological systems build on self-organized, local
