Intrinsic Plasticity for Natural Competition in Koniocortex-Like Neural Networks.

International journal of neural systems
In this paper, we use the neural property known as intrinsic plasticity to develop neural network models that resemble the koniocortex, the fourth layer of sensory cortices. These models evolved from a very basic two-layered neural network to a compl...

Is cortical connectivity optimized for storing information?

Nature neuroscience
Cortical networks are thought to be shaped by experience-dependent synaptic plasticity. Theoretical studies have shown that synaptic plasticity allows a network to store a memory of patterns of activity such that they become attractors of the dynamic...

A Computational Framework for Realistic Retina Modeling.

International journal of neural systems
Computational simulations of the retina have led to valuable insights about the biophysics of its neuronal activity and processing principles. A great number of retina models have been proposed to reproduce the behavioral diversity of the different v...

Mechanisms of memory storage in a model perirhinal network.

Brain structure & function
The perirhinal cortex supports recognition and associative memory. Prior unit recording studies revealed that recognition memory involves a reduced responsiveness of perirhinal cells to familiar stimuli whereas associative memory formation is linked ...

Feature-Linking Model for Image Enhancement.

Neural computation
Inspired by gamma-band oscillations and other neurobiological discoveries, neural networks research shifts the emphasis toward temporal coding, which uses explicit times at which spikes occur as an essential dimension in neural representations. We pr...

Learning to Produce Syllabic Speech Sounds via Reward-Modulated Neural Plasticity.

PloS one
At around 7 months of age, human infants begin to reliably produce well-formed syllables containing both consonants and vowels, a behavior called canonical babbling. Over subsequent months, the frequency of canonical babbling continues to increase. H...

Neuroplasticity in dynamic neural networks comprised of neurons attached to adaptive base plate.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
In this paper, a learning algorithm is developed for Dynamic Plastic Continuous Neural Networks (DPCNNs) to improve their learning of highly nonlinear time dependent problems. A DPCNN is comprised of a base medium, which is nonlinear and plastic, and...

Mirrored STDP Implements Autoencoder Learning in a Network of Spiking Neurons.

PLoS computational biology
The autoencoder algorithm is a simple but powerful unsupervised method for training neural networks. Autoencoder networks can learn sparse distributed codes similar to those seen in cortical sensory areas such as visual area V1, but they can also be ...

Efficient Associative Computation with Discrete Synapses.

Neural computation
Neural associative networks are a promising computational paradigm for both modeling neural circuits of the brain and implementing associative memory and Hebbian cell assemblies in parallel VLSI or nanoscale hardware. Previous work has extensively in...

Synaptic Metaplasticity Realized in Oxide Memristive Devices.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
Metaplasticity, a higher order of synaptic plasticity, as well as a key issue in neuroscience, is realized with artificial synapses based on a WO3 thin film, and the activity-dependent metaplastic responses of the artificial synapses, such as spike-t...
