The complexity of processes occurring in the brain is an intriguing issue not just for scientists and medical doctors, but the humanity in general. The cortex ability to perceive and analyze an enormous amount of information in an instance of time, the par ...
In computational neuroscience, it is of crucial importance to dispose of a model that is able to accurately describe the single-neuron activity. This model should be at the same time biologically relevant and computationally fast. Many different phenomenol ...
Multiple types of measures have been developed to measure the similarity between two spike trains. These were extensively used to classify neuron responses according to stimuli and to validate mathematical models that predict the spike times. Here we analy ...
We analyze the class of networks characterized by modular structure where a sequence of l Erdos-Renyi random networks of size N >> 1 with random average degrees is joined by links whose structure must remain immaterial. We find that traceroutes spanning th ...
Predicting activity of single neuron is an important part of the computational neuroscience and a great challenge. Several mathematical models exist, from the simple (one compartment and few parameters, like the SRM or the IF-type models), to the more comp ...
Neuroscience produces a vast amount of data from an enormous diversity of neurons. A neuronal classification system is essential to organize such data and the knowledge that is derived from them. Classification depends on the unequivocal identification of ...
Micro-electrode array (MEA) technology has been exploited as a powerful tool for providing distributed information on learning, memory and information processing in cultured neuronal tissue, enabling an experimental perspective from the single cell level u ...
Computational neuroscience is a branch of the neurosciences that attempts to elucidate the principles underlying the operation of neurons with the help of mathematical modeling. In contrast with a number of fields pursuing a tightly related goal, such as m ...
Generalized linear models are the most commonly used tools to describe the stimulus selectivity of sensory neurons. Here we present a Bayesian treatment of such models. Using the expectation propagation algorithm, we are able to approximate the full poster ...
