Computational models of the primary visual cortex (V1) have suggested that V1 neurons behave like Gabor filters followed by simple nonlinearities. However, recent work employing convolutional neural network (CNN) models has suggested that V1 relies o...

Spiking neural membrane systems (or spiking neural P systems, SNP systems) are a new type of computation model which have attracted the attention of plentiful scholars for parallelism, time encoding, interpretability and extensibility. The original S...
Deep feedforward and recurrent neural networks have become successful functional models of the brain, but they neglect obvious biological details such as spikes and Dale's law. Here we argue that these details are crucial in order to understand how r...
A key question in the neuroscience of memory encoding pertains to the mechanisms by which afferent stimuli are allocated within memory networks. This issue is especially pronounced in the domain of working memory, where capacity is finite. Presumably...
Large language models based on self-attention mechanisms have achieved astonishing performances, not only in natural language itself, but also in a variety of tasks of different nature. However, regarding processing language, our human brain may not ...
Dynamical balance of excitation and inhibition is usually invoked to explain the irregular low firing activity observed in the cortex. We propose a robust nonlinear balancing mechanism for a random network of spiking neurons, which works also in the ...
The space of possible behaviors that complex biological systems may exhibit is unimaginably vast, and these systems often appear to be stochastic, whether due to variable noisy environmental inputs or intrinsically generated chaos. The brain is a pro...
The human brain, as a complex system, has long captivated multidisciplinary researchers aiming to decode its intricate structure and function. This intricate network has driven scientific pursuits to advance our understanding of cognition, behavior, ...
Memory engrams in mice brains are potentially related to groups of concept cells in human brains. A single concept cell in human hippocampus responds, for example, not only to different images of the same object or person but also to its name written...
