Determining Structures of RNA Conformers Using AFM and Deep Neural Networks

Academic Background RNA (ribonucleic acid) is a crucial molecule in living organisms, involved in various biological processes such as gene expression, regulation, and catalysis. Although a significant portion of the human genome is transcribed into RNA, the structural study of RNA molecules remains a major challenge. RNA molecules typically exhibi...

Prediction error processing and sharpening of expected information

Scientific Report Background Introduction Perception and neuronal processing of sensory information are largely influenced by prior expectations. Perception is not merely passive reception, but an active inferential process by combining existing sensory information with prior information based on past experience and current context. The combination...
