Interesting, thanks:<p>> human brain performs around 0.18 – 6.4 * 10 TEPS. Thus if the FLOPS:TEPS ratio in brains is similar to that in computers, a brain would perform around 0.9 – 33.7 * 10 FLOPS<p>But I have to agree with the comment:<p>> FLOPS is specifically a measure of floating point mathematical operations with a certain precision. While this measure may be important in determining the power required to <i>emulate</i> a brain (as statistical computations involve floating point numbers), that does not mean that a brain works in floating point values. In fact, it is easy to construct a system that does very little computation, but requires an insanely high amount of floating point operations to emulate it
