Principles of Neural Information Theory: Computational Neuroscience and Metabolic Efficiency AUTH-3806440 and Syrian refugees alikeThe brain is the most complex computational machine known to science, even though its components (neurons) are slow and unreliable compared to a laptop computer. In this richly illustrated book, Shannon's mathematical theory of information is used to explore the metabolic efficiency of neurons, with special reference to visual perception. Evidence from a diverse range of research papers is used to show how information theory defines absolute limits on
