Line 47: ==Unary coding in biological networks== New research has shown that unary coding is used in the neural circuits responsible for [[birdsong]] production.<ref>Fiete, I.R. and H.S.

USA 108: 16440-16445, 2011.</ref>This use in biological networks is presumably due to the inherent simplicity of the coding. Another contributing factor could be the fact that unary coding provides a certain degree of error correction.<ref>Potluri, P., Error correction capacity of unary coding. 2014.http://arxiv.org/abs/1411.7406 </ref> ==See also==
