Mind, Body, World - Foundations of Cognitive Science
Michael R. W. Dawson · University of Alberta
Perhaps owing to the field's origins in cybernetics, as well as to the foundational assumption that cognition is information processing, cognitive science initially seemed more unified than psychology. However, as a result of differing interpretations of the foundational assumption and dramatically divergent views of the meaning of the term information processing, three separate schools emerged: classical cognitive science, connectionist cognitive science, and embodied cognitive science.

Lauren Champlin · Rio Hondo College
Color is a language with the unique ability to communicate both meanings and direct sensations. Picture a row of flags: color information of striped bands is used to distinguish country affiliation. Now, on the other hand, imagine standing in front of a Rothko painting: entering fields of red and orange raises your heart rate slightly, makes you feel warm, excited, complex emotions.

Neural Networks and Deep Learning
Michael Nielson · Y Combinator Research
Neural networks are one of the most beautiful programming paradigms ever invented. In the conventional approach to programming, we tell the computer what to do, breaking big problems up into many small, precisely defined tasks that the computer can easily perform. By contrast, in a neural network we don't tell the computer how to solve our problem. Instead, it learns from observational data, figuring out its own solution to the problem at hand.

Atlas of Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy
LibreTexts
The Atlas of Comparative Anatomy began as a class project at SUNY Oneonta in 2017 because of the lack of a comprehensive freely-accessible photographic atlas. The majority of entries in this atlas were produced by students including dissection, photography, and identification. It is a work in progress, but we hope that students of anatomy find this a useful tool for studying anatomy outside of the lab.
