"The relationship between the signals are non-linear and must be understood within the context of how the pairs are grouped," the researchers explained. "Learning such transverse patterns requires enhanced mental capacity. Being able to do so is useful when forming complex relationship networks, solving problems, or updating what you already know about a subject."…" Main page link Amicalement Armand
