Introduction to the world of brain and
behavior computational models
This book provides a broad collection of articles covering
different aspects of computational modeling efforts in psychology
and neuroscience. Specifically, it discusses models that span
different brain regions (hippocampus, amygdala, basal ganglia,
visual cortex), different species (humans, rats, fruit flies),
and different modeling methods (neural network, Bayesian,
reinforcement learning, data fitting, and Hodgkin-Huxley models,
among others).

Computational Models of Brain and Behavior is divided into
four sections: (a) Models of brain disorders; (b) Neural models
of behavioral processes; (c) Models of neural processes, brain
regions and neurotransmitters, and (d) Neural modeling
approaches. It provides in-depth coverage of models of
psychiatric disorders, including depression, posttraumatic stress
disorder (PTSD), schizophrenia, and dyslexia; models of
neurological disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease,
Parkinson’s disease, and epilepsy; early sensory and perceptual
processes; models of olfaction; higher/systems level models and
low-level models; Pavlovian and instrumental conditioning;
linking information theory to neurobiology; and more.
