Humans and other animals are able to quickly generalize latent dynamics of spatiotemporal sequences, often from a minimal number of previous experiences. Additionally, internal representations of external stimuli must remain stable, even in the prese...
Synchronization is a widespread phenomenon in the brain. Despite numerous studies, the specific parameter configurations of the synaptic network structure and learning rules needed to achieve robust and enduring synchronization in neurons driven by s...

As a member of the third generation of artificial neural network models, spiking neural P systems (SN P systems) have gained a hot research spot in recent years. This work introduces the phenomenon of lateral inhibition in biological nervous systems ...
The statistical structure of the environment is often important when making decisions. There are multiple theories of how the brain represents statistical structure. One such theory states that neural activity spontaneously samples from probability d...
Empirical applications of the free-energy principle are not straightforward because they entail a commitment to a particular process theory, especially at the cellular and synaptic levels. Using a recently established reverse engineering technique, w...

Heterogeneity is the norm in biology. The brain is no different: Neuronal cell types are myriad, reflected through their cellular morphology, type, excitability, connectivity motifs, and ion channel distributions. While this biophysical diversity enr...
In biological neural networks, chemical communication follows the reversible integrate-and-fire (I&F) dynamics model, enabling efficient, anti-interference signal transport. However, existing artificial neurons fail to follow the I&F model in chemica...
Neural computations emerge from local recurrent neural circuits or computational units such as cortical columns that comprise hundreds to a few thousand neurons. Continuous progress in connectomics, electrophysiology, and calcium imaging require trac...

Evolution-communication spiking neural P systems with energy request rules (ECSNP-ER systems) are proposed and developed as a new variant of evolution-communication spiking neural P systems. In ECSNP-ER systems, in addition to spike-evolution rules a...
