Assignment

Make sure you have read and understood chapters 2 and 3 of Computational Explorations in Cognitive Neuroscience, and that you have worked through the explorations in chapter 2 (not to be handed in).

Work through the explorations in chapter 3. Hand in answers to the following questions:

3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 (section 3.3)

3.6, 3.7, 3.9 (section 3.4)

3.13, 3.14 (section 3.5.3)

You will find it helpful if you work through all the simulations in chapter 3, even those for which I am not asking you to hand in answers to the questions.

Your answers should handed in to me before the end of the lecture on November 5th. The subsequent tutorial will go over the answers to the assignment
