description

This chapter presents an overview of some key aspects of the neuro-inspired modelling previously discussed, under the new perspective of the neural reuse theory. Here it is envisaged that the excellent capabilities shown by insects with their small neuron number and relatively low brain complexity, as compared to vertebrates, could be justified if some key neural structures are re-used for different behavioural needs. The chapter recalls some examples, found in the literature for addressing specific topics and reformulates them in relation to the neural reuse theory.
