A method to estimate the cellular composition of the mouse brain from heterogeneous datasets

Henry Markram, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Michael Reimann, Daniel Keller, Marc-Oliver Gewaltig, Yann Roussel, Dimitri Bruno Marie Rodarie

The mouse brain contains a rich diversity of inhibitory neuron types that have been characterized by their patterns of gene expression. However, it is still unclear how these cell types are distributed across the mouse brain. We developed a computational m ...

Optimum trajectory learning in musculoskeletal systems with model predictive control and deep reinforcement learning

Henry Markram, Marc-Oliver Gewaltig

From the computational point of view, musculoskeletal control is the problem of controlling high degrees of freedom and dynamic multi-body system that is driven by redundant muscle units. A critical challenge in the control perspective of skeletal joints w ...

Feed-forward and noise-tolerant detection of feature homogeneity in spiking networks with a latency code

Marc-Oliver Gewaltig

In studies of the visual system as well as in computer vision, the focus is often on contrast edges. However, the primate visual system contains a large number of cells that are insensitive to spatial contrast and, instead, respond to uniform homogeneous i ...

Experimental and Computational Study on Motor Control and Recovery After Stroke: Toward a Constructive Loop Between Experimental and Virtual Embodied Neuroscience

Auke Ijspeert, Silvestro Micera, Shravan Tata Ramalingasetty, Marc-Oliver Gewaltig, Emanuele Formento, Maria Pasquini, Egidio Falotico, Lorenzo Vannucci, Axel von Arnim, Emmanouil Angelidis

Being able to replicate real experiments with computational simulations is a unique opportunity to refine and validate models with experimental data and redesign the experiments based on simulations. However, since it is technically demanding to model all ...

Electrical Compartmentalization in Neurons

Marc-Oliver Gewaltig, Willem Anna Mark Wybo, Benjamin Torben-Nielsen

The dendritic tree of neurons plays an important role in information processing in the brain. While it is thought that dendrites require independent subunits to perform most of their computations, it is still not understood how they compartmentalize into f ...

A Cell Atlas for the Mouse Brain

Henry Markram, Daniel Keller, Marc-Oliver Gewaltig

Despite vast numbers of studies of stained cells in the mouse brain, no current brain atlas provides region-by-region neuron counts. In fact, neuron numbers are only available for about 4% of brain of regions and estimates often vary by as much as 3-fold. ...

Simplification of neural network models

Wulfram Gerstner, Henry Markram, Eilif Benjamin Muller, James Gonzalo King, Idan Segev, Marc-Oliver Gewaltig, Christian Antonio Pozzorini, Willem Anna Mark Wybo, Christian Andreas Rössert, Csaba Erö

The simplification of neural network models is described. For example, a method for simplifying a neural network model includes providing the neural network model to be simplified, defining a first temporal filter for the conveyance of input from a neuron ...
