NMDA-driven dendritic modulation enables multitask representation learning in hierarchical sensory processing pathways

Willem Anna Mark Wybo, Bernd Albert Illing, Matthias Chinyen Tsai, Walter Senn

While sensory representations in the brain depend on context, it remains unclear how such modulations are implemented at the biophysical level, and how processing layers further in the hierarchy can extract useful features for each possible contex-tual sta ...

Biologically plausible unsupervised learning in shallow and deep neural networks

Bernd Albert Illing

The way our brain learns to disentangle complex signals into unambiguous concepts is fascinating but remains largely unknown. There is evidence, however, that hierarchical neural representations play a key role in the cortex. This thesis investigates biolo ...

Local plasticity rules can learn deep representations using self-supervised contrastive predictions

Wulfram Gerstner, Bernd Albert Illing, Jean Ventura

Learning in the brain is poorly understood and learning rules that respect biological constraints, yet yield deep hierarchical representations, are still unknown. Here, we propose a learning rule that takes inspiration from neuroscience and recent advances ...
