Indirect and direct training of spiking neural networks for end-to-end control of a lane-keeping vehicle.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
Building spiking neural networks (SNNs) based on biological synaptic plasticities holds a promising potential for accomplishing fast and energy-efficient computing, which is beneficial to mobile robotic applications. However, the implementations of S...

A diversity of interneurons and Hebbian plasticity facilitate rapid compressible learning in the hippocampus.

Nature neuroscience
The hippocampus is able to rapidly learn incoming information, even if that information is only observed once. Furthermore, this information can be replayed in a compressed format in either forward or reverse modes during sharp wave-ripples (SPW-Rs)....

A Probabilistic Synapse With Strained MTJs for Spiking Neural Networks.

IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
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-...

Short-term synaptic plasticity expands the operational range of long-term synaptic changes in neural networks.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
The brain is highly plastic, with synaptic weights changing across a wide range of time scales, from hundreds of milliseconds to days. Changes occurring at different temporal scales are believed to serve different purposes, with long-term changes for...

Circuit mechanisms for the maintenance and manipulation of information in working memory.

Nature neuroscience
Recently it has been proposed that information in working memory (WM) may not always be stored in persistent neuronal activity but can be maintained in 'activity-silent' hidden states, such as synaptic efficacies endowed with short-term synaptic plas...

Spatiotemporal discrimination in attractor networks with short-term synaptic plasticity.

Journal of computational neuroscience
We demonstrate that a randomly connected attractor network with dynamic synapses can discriminate between similar sequences containing multiple stimuli suggesting such networks provide a general basis for neural computations in the brain. The network...

A Reservoir Computing Model of Reward-Modulated Motor Learning and Automaticity.

Neural computation
Reservoir computing is a biologically inspired class of learning algorithms in which the intrinsic dynamics of a recurrent neural network are mined to produce target time series. Most existing reservoir computing algorithms rely on fully supervised l...

Discrimination of Motion Direction in a Robot Using a Phenomenological Model of Synaptic Plasticity.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Recognizing and tracking the direction of moving stimuli is crucial to the control of much animal behaviour. In this study, we examine whether a bio-inspired model of synaptic plasticity implemented in a robotic agent may allow the discrimination of ...

Spatial Concept Learning: A Spiking Neural Network Implementation in Virtual and Physical Robots.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
This paper proposes an artificial spiking neural network (SNN) sustaining the cognitive abstract process of spatial concept learning, embedded in virtual and real robots. Based on an operant conditioning procedure, the robots learn the relationship o...

Memristive Imitation of Synaptic Transmission and Plasticity.

IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
In this paper, a memristive artificial neural circuit imitating the excitatory chemical synaptic transmission of biological synapse is designed. The proposed memristor-based neural circuit exhibits synaptic plasticity, one of the important neurochemi...
