Abstract: In this talk, we explore the fascinating intersection between linear algebra and neuroscience, specifically looking at how the brain processes and performs linear transformations. We delve into the mathematical concepts of vector spaces, linear transformations, and eigenvalues, and then examine how these principles apply to the way neurons communicate and process information in the brain. We discover that the brain’s ability to perform complex transformations on sensory input is not only remarkable but also fundamental to how we perceive and interact with the world around us. Join us on this exciting journey where we uncover the deep connections between math and the brain!
