Minimal nonlinear dynamic neuron models of the generic bifurcation type may provide the middle way between the detailed models favored by experimentalists and the simplified threshold and rate model of computational neuroscientists. This thesis investigate ...
Spiking Neuron Networks (SNNs) are often referred to as the 3rd generation of neural networks. They derive their strength and interest from an accurate modelling of synaptic interactions between neurons, taking into account the time of spike emission. SNNs ...
How the visual brain integrates temporally dispersed information is an open question. Often, it is assumed that the visual system simply sums light over a certain period of time (e.g. Bloch's law). However, in feature fusion, information presented later do ...
Understanding how the information is coded in large neuronal networks is one of the major challenges for neuroscience. A possible approach to investigate the information processing capabilities of the neuronal ensembles is given by the use of dissociated n ...
In this paper, we present a continuous attractor network model, which we hypothesize will give some suggestion of the mechanisms underlying several neural processes, such as velocity tuning to visual stimulus, sensory discrimination, sensorimotor-transform ...
We propose a novel network model of spiking neurons, without preimposed topology and driven by STDP (Spike-Time-Dependent Plasticity), a temporal Hebbian unsupervised learning mode, based on biological observations of synaptic plasticity. The model is furt ...
Humans’ capacity to imitate has been extensively investigated through a wide-range of behavioral and developmental studies. Yet, despite the huge amount of phenomenological evidence gathered, we are still unable to relate this behavioral data to any specif ...
A large number of studies on neuronal physiology and plasticity have provided a detailed picture of the molecular machinery underlying the modulation of neuronal activity. On the contrary, the mechanisms controlling properties of complex neuronal networks ...
Neurons generate spikes reliably with millisecond precision if driven by a fluctuating current—is it then possible to predict the spike timing knowing the input? We determined parameters of an adapting threshold model using data recorded in vitro from 24 l ...
We describe evolution of spiking neural architectures to control navigation of autonomous mobile robots. Experimental results with simple fitness functions indicate that evolution can rapidly generate spiking circuits capable of navigating in textured envi ...
