Unused brain regions can be repurposed via neuroplasticity

- adipandas 7y agoVery interesting study. It can rather pave the way for research in structural adaptation in the current deep learning research rather than only on architecture search and few shot learning. If one thinks of this as engineering problem in deep learning, it may also be considered that this repurposed brain region is reinforcement learning in action along with self-organization in brain. Really cool.
