Development of models for predicting Torsade de Pointes cardiac arrhythmias using perceptron neural networks.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Blockage of some ion channels and in particular, the hERG (human Ether-a'-go-go-Related Gene) cardiac potassium channel delays cardiac repolarization and can induce arrhythmia. In some cases it leads to a potentially life-threatening arrh...

STDP-based spiking deep convolutional neural networks for object recognition.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
Previous studies have shown that spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) can be used in spiking neural networks (SNN) to extract visual features of low or intermediate complexity in an unsupervised manner. These studies, however, used relatively sha...

Cortical frequency-specific plasticity is independently induced by intracortical circuitry.

Neuroscience letters
Auditory learning induces frequency-specific plasticity in the auditory cortex. Both the auditory cortex and thalamus are involved in the cortical plasticity; however, the precise role of the intracortical circuity remains unclear until the contribut...

Modeling spike-wave discharges by a complex network of neuronal oscillators.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
PURPOSE: The organization of neural networks and the mechanisms, which generate the highly stereotypical for absence epilepsy spike-wave discharges (SWDs) is heavily debated. Here we describe such a model which can both reproduce the characteristics ...

Spiking Neural Classifier with Lumped Dendritic Nonlinearity and Binary Synapses: A Current Mode VLSI Implementation and Analysis.

Neural computation
We present a neuromorphic current mode implementation of a spiking neural classifier with lumped square law dendritic nonlinearity. It has been shown previously in software simulations that such a system with binary synapses can be trained with struc...

Evaluation of Decoding Algorithms for Estimating Bladder Pressure from Dorsal Root Ganglia Neural Recordings.

Annals of biomedical engineering
A closed-loop device for bladder control may offer greater clinical benefit compared to current open-loop stimulation devices. Previous studies have demonstrated the feasibility of using single-unit recordings from sacral-level dorsal root ganglia (D...

Statistics of Visual Responses to Image Object Stimuli from Primate AIT Neurons to DNN Neurons.

Neural computation
Under the goal-driven paradigm, Yamins et al. ( 2014 ; Yamins & DiCarlo, 2016 ) have shown that by optimizing only the final eight-way categorization performance of a four-layer hierarchical network, not only can its top output layer quantitatively p...

The role of neuron-glia interactions in the emergence of ultra-slow oscillations.

Biological cybernetics
Ultra-slow cortical oscillatory activity of 1-100 mHz has been recorded in human by electroencephalography and in dissociated cultures of cortical rat neurons, but the underlying mechanisms remain to be elucidated. This study presents a computational...

Variable synaptic strengths controls the firing rate distribution in feedforward neural networks.

Journal of computational neuroscience
Heterogeneity of firing rate statistics is known to have severe consequences on neural coding. Recent experimental recordings in weakly electric fish indicate that the distribution-width of superficial pyramidal cell firing rates (trial- and time-ave...

Working Memory and Decision-Making in a Frontoparietal Circuit Model.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience
Working memory (WM) and decision-making (DM) are fundamental cognitive functions involving a distributed interacting network of brain areas, with the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) and prefrontal cortex (PFC) at the core. However, the shared and dis...
