Researchers at the University of California's Bonney Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory in Irvine develop a computer simulation of the brain's odor-recognition circuitry. By studying how mammals smell and how the brain remembers odors, researchers might be able to develop computers that understand speech, recognize images and, perhaps, even sniff odors. The computer model was created to imitate the neurons in the brain's olfactory cortex, where odors are recognized. By studying the smelling process, researchers hope they will discover clues to other sensing mechanisms and how humans remember what they have sensed. Eventually, computers capable of following the trail of an oil spill to its origin, processing sonar signals or tracking signals sent through space may be developed.
