Elan Barenholtz PhD

Hey, I'm Elan. I'm an associate professor of psychology and complex systems at Florida Atlantic University.  I co-direct the Machine Perception and Cognitive Robotics Lab and I am also associate director of the Center for the Future Mind

 

My research is concerned with computational models of brain function. I am currently working on a unified autoregressive generative theory of cognition based on the same core computational principles of Large-language  Models Like ChatGPT.
