Attending #OCNS2026? Join us at the Workshop on Methods of Information Theory in Computational Neuroscience. Two days of great talks. @jlizier.bsky.social @misicbata.bsky.social @thosvarley.bsky.social @nicohinrichs.bsky.social @funsycnrs.bsky.social

Excited to share our preprint led by Tanakorn Udomworarat, in collaboration with Kris van der Zee and Sergio Rojas. 📄 "Neural network approximation in discrete dual norms with adaptive test spaces" 🔗 arxiv.org/abs/2606.20972 Congratulations to Tanakorn on leading this work! 🎉

Neural network approximation in discrete dual norms with adaptive test spaces

In robust variational physics-informed neural networks (RVPINNs), the loss function is formulated in terms of the Riesz representative of the variational residual within a discrete test space. This ap...

Marilyn Gatica describes how higher-order interactions capture important information in the brain

*Complexity in Mental Health* Interplay between brain, behavior and context Organized by Igor Branchi and Francesca Culirulli. Phenomenal location in Erice, Sicily.

Can plasticity -a system’s capacity for change- be quantified before change occurs? Plasticity is here formalized as a priori network quantity, reframing it as a prospective, predictive tool for complex systems Comments welcome 📂 arxiv.org/abs/2603.25180 #ComplexSystems #Plasticity #Neuroscience

Now in 𝙎𝙘𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚, with contributions from #NetSI & Project CETI's 𝗚𝗶𝗼𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗶 𝗣𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗶, a paper that captures one of nature’s rarest moments: a whale birth 🐋 Using drone footage & network analysis, researchers reveal coordinated care—even from non-kin—supporting mother & calf. tinyurl.com/5hdzbs9v

Cooperation by non-kin during birth underpins sperm whale social complexity

We quantitatively document a sperm whale birth event, revealing collective support behaviors across kinship lines. Using high-resolution drone footage, computer vision, and multiscale network analysis...
