The complex connectivity structure unique to the brain network is believed to underlie its robust and efficient coding capability. One of many unique features of the mammalian brain network is its spatial embedding and hierarchical organization. I will discuss effects of these structural characteristics on network dynamics as well as their computational implications with a focus on the flexibility between modular and global computations and predictive coding.
