Stephen Grossberg is a cognitive scientist, mathematician, and head of the Department of Cognitive and Neural Systems at Boston University. With his wife Gail Carpenter, he developed the adaptive resonance theory of neural architecture.

The ART theory was practically demonstrated through the ART family of classifiers, and was itself based on his insights in neuroscience and behaviour, which he had translated into first order differential equations that governed behaviour of neurons. These neurons are generally divided into different fields. Neurons within the same field share a fixed surface potential for which they compete. Neurons across different fields share connections of adaptive weights.

His research interests include brain models of visual and auditory pattern recognition, cognitive-emotional interactions, and sensory-motor control.

Grossberg is currently co-Editor-in-Chief of the Journal Neural Networks.
