Virtual reality technology is changing the world as we know it. More importantly, VR is changing what we know about the autistic brain, but is also helping those with autism spectrum disorder. While we may view virtual reality technology as somewhat of a new fine, “Autism therapists and researchers started…

As you can imagine, having autism, especially as a young child, can make it very difficult in terms of comprehension and learning.

We’re back on the theme of neurons and talking about how we can fix psychiatric and spectrum disorders through our work at xNeurals. This time we’ll be focusing on neurodegeneration. Neurodegeneration is defined as, “the progressive atrophy and loss of function of neurons, which is present in neurodegenerative diseases such…

Let’s talk about this amazing therapy called EMDR and how this relates to our work at xNeurals. EMDR therapy is is eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy. According to Dr. Arielle Schwartz, “EMDR Therapy changes maladaptive neural networks by connecting the traumatic memory with new information. …

In my two most recent posts, I discussed conditional GANs as well as ResNets and VGG-16/19 in detail. I used a conditional GAN to learn to create images of numbers using the MNIST handwritten data set. The simple GAN I created worked well and was able to learn how to…
