Universal principles justify the existence of concept cells (1912.02040v1)

Published 4 Dec 2019 in q-bio.NC, math.DS, and nlin.AO

Abstract: It is largely believed that complex cognitive phenomena require the perfect orchestrated collaboration of many neurons. However, this is not what converging experimental evidence suggests. Single neurons, the so-called concept cells, may be responsible for complex tasks performed by an individual. Here, starting from a few first principles, we layout physical foundations showing that concept cells are not only possible but highly likely, given that neurons work in a high dimensional space.
