Cognitive control, the ability to orchestrate behavior in accord with our goals, depends on
the prefrontal cortex. These cognitive functions are heavily influenced by the …

Studies in humans and non-human primates have provided evidence for storage of working
memory contents in multiple regions ranging from sensory to parietal and prefrontal cortex …

This book argues that there is a joint in nature between seeing and thinking, perception, and
cognition. Perception is constitutively iconic, nonconceptual, and nonpropositional, whereas …

In this review, we are pitting two theories against each other: the more accepted theory, the
number sense theory, suggesting that a sense of number is innate and non-symbolic …

Cognitive Development and Cognitive Neuroscience: The Learning Brain is a thoroughly
revised edition of the bestselling Cognitive Development. The new edition of this full-colour …

Humans and other species have biologically endowed abilities for discriminating quantities.
A widely accepted view sees such abilities as an evolved capacity specific for number and …

Our human-specific symbolic number skills that underpin science and technology spring
from nonsymbolic set size representations. Despite the significance of numerical …

Evolution selects for traits that are of adaptive value and increase the fitness of an individual
or population. Numerical competence, the ability to estimate and process the number of …

Abstract The success of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) in computer vision is mainly
driven by their strong inductive bias, which is strong enough to allow CNNs to solve vision …

Number sense, the ability to estimate numerosity, is observed in naïve animals, but how this
cognitive function emerges in the brain remains unclear. Here, using an artificial deep …
