Babies React as Per Their Deep Analysis of Things

Babies React as Per Their Deep Analysis of Things
A recent research by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the US reveals that infants around 1-year-old react to things not out of spontaneity or usual behavior, but after making a deep analysis back in their minds.
Earlier researches have proved that infants are capable of understanding all kinds of facts. The researchers have reached on such conclusions on the basis of readings the looks of the babies as they are exposed to normal and abnormal scenes. The infants are believed to be silent analysts of events that have never occurred to them.
The researchers, with the help of computers, were capable to find how an infant would perceive if provided with certain information. As per Josh Tenenbaum, researcher from MIT, the computer model could be used to create materialist intelligence that would respond accurately to the world. The study also reveals that how foresighted baby brains can be.
"Even young infants' brains, before they're able to walk and talk, they are building coherent, rational models about what is happening out there in the world", Tenenbaum said. "We actually think that at 12 months, they know more than this model does". Josh Tenenbaum wants to pursue further research to know about the other aspects of functioning in baby brains as the research is believed to be the first stage towards a logical theory of infants reasoning.
