The ability of neural networks to associate successive states of network activity lies at the basis of many cognitive functions. Hence, we hypothesized that many ubiquitous structural and dynamical properties of local cortical networks result from as...

Recent studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of supervised learning in spiking neural networks (SNNs). A trainable SNN provides a valuable tool not only for engineering applications but also for theoretical neuroscience studies. Here, we propos...
Individual neurons can exhibit a wide range of activity, including spontaneous spiking, tonic spiking, bursting, or spike-frequency adaptation, and can also transition between these activity types. Manual identification of these activity patterns can...

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are of interest for applications for which conventional computing suffers from the nearly insurmountable memory-processor bottleneck. This paper presents a stochastic SNN architecture that is based on specialized logic-...
Software implementations of brain-inspired computing underlie many important computational tasks, from image processing to speech recognition, artificial intelligence and deep learning applications. Yet, unlike real neural tissue, traditional computi...

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) receive trains of spiking events as inputs. In order to design efficient SNN systems, real-valued signals must be optimally encoded into spike trains so that the task-relevant information is retained. This paper provide...
The midbrain superior colliculus (SC) generates a rapid saccadic eye movement to a sensory stimulus by recruiting a population of cells in its topographically organized motor map. Supra-threshold electrical microstimulation in the SC reveals that the...

We trained two spiking neural networks (SNNs), the cortical spiking network (CSN) and the cortical neuron-astrocyte network (CNAN), using a spike-based unsupervised method, on the MNIST and alpha-digit data sets and achieve an accuracy of 96.1% and 7...
Brains perform complex tasks using a fraction of the power that would be required to do the same on a conventional computer. New neuromorphic hardware systems are now becoming widely available that are intended to emulate the more power efficient, hi...
