Our study reveals a general relation among energy dissipation rate, adaptation speed ... adaptation accuracy. Our work provides a general framework to study cost-performance trade-offs for ...

In addition to Fitts’ Law, we (Schmidt, Zelaznik, Hawkins, Frank & Quinn, 1979) proposed a linear speed-accuracy trade-off. These two laws appear to be fundamentally different. We have begun a series ...

Now by taking the time factor into account, the study suggests that vital speed-accuracy trade-offs are already present in the wiring or tuning of neurons. The brain may not encode all types of ...

and the possibility of speed– accuracy trade-offs evaluated. Even individual insects vary in their reluctance to make errors.

However, a compelling explanation for how the brain strikes such a balance, known as speed-accuracy tradeoff (SAT), is lacking. Carmen Kohl and colleagues reconcile contradictory accounts of the ...
