The effect of age at injury on outcome after acquired brain injury (ABI) has been the subject of much debate. Many argue that young brains are relatively tolerant of injury. A contrasting viewpoint due to Hebb argues that greater system integrity may be required for the initial establishment of a function than for preservation of an already-established

Whiplash Gradient Descent Dynamics [PDF]
In this paper, we propose the Whiplash Inertial Gradient dynamics, a closed-loop optimization method that utilises gradient information, to find the minima of a cost function in finite-dimensional settings. We introduce the symplectic asymptotic convergence analysis for the Whiplash system for convex functions. We also introduce relaxation sequences to
