We then show why the brain didn’t end up doing the same: computational reliability. Model networks form a centralized “oligarchy” instead of a distributed “rich club” and that makes them fragile. So we found a new trade-off with robustness being even more important than both cost and efficiency.

Our model is simple: each region connects only to maximize its communication capacity given the wiring cost. We show that this gives rise to brain-like architectures but also, under a propagative dynamics, they become even more cost efficient while having comparable computational performance.

We use game theory and show the brain is not optimally wired for communication and there’s more to its story:

Good luck putting this together all in matplotlib brother 💁🏻♂️

We thank the reviewers for their invaluable input on the third round and we hope the manuscript seems ready from their perspective as well.

We started the workshop at #OCNS2025 with some very cool presentations by @gzamora-lopez.bsky.social, Mariia Popova, and Douglas Zhou on network structure and dynamics. The door is open (room 101), come by if you’re interested. Here’s the full program:

I randomly came across an absolute legend who is publishing papers alone, all the way from 2010, without being affiliated with any institutions. I have so many questions, starting with “how does your day look like?”

Yesterday @akiraoc.bsky.social gave a deeply inspiring talk on colonialism, racism, sexism and other systemic issues of academia. I’m still thinking which one is better, joining establishments and changing them for good or just boycotting them, hoping that they wither away.
