- This is the most prestigious publication of the EPSRC project NUMBERS (£101k, EP/P030033/1). For its industrial relevance, the project received a £16,000 donation (hardware and staff support) from NVIDIA Corporation. This multidisciplinary project created the first developmental neurorobotics model of number understanding in children that used realistic data to produce results comparable to children. The research and experimental studies were designed in collaboration with prof. McClelland, Professor at Stanford University and a pioneer in connectionist modelling (neural networks) of psychological phenomena. The model has prompted new models and studies with Manchester and Plymouth Universities published by the journal Psychological Research.
