Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for identifying one or more regions of a brain of a biological organism that are predicted to be functionally-specialized for performing a task. In one aspect, a method comprises: obtaining data defining a synaptic connectivity graph representing synaptic connectivity between neurons in the brain of the biological organism; identifying a plurality of sub-graphs of the synaptic connectivity graph; determining, for each sub-graph of the plurality of sub-graphs, a performance measure characterizing a performance of a neural network having a neural network architecture that is specified by the sub-graph in accomplishing the task; and determining, based on the performance measures, that one or more sub-graphs of the plurality of sub-graphs correspond to regions of the brain of the biological organism that are predicted to be functionally-specialized for performing the task.
