Dynamic role of adult-born dentate granule cells in memory processing.

Current opinion in neurobiology
Throughout the adult life of all mammals including humans, new neurons are incorporated to the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. During a critical window that lasts about two weeks, adult-born immature neurons are more excitable and plastic than matu...

A neural network that finds a naturalistic solution for the production of muscle activity.

Nature neuroscience
It remains an open question how neural responses in motor cortex relate to movement. We explored the hypothesis that motor cortex reflects dynamics appropriate for generating temporally patterned outgoing commands. To formalize this hypothesis, we tr...

Speed-accuracy tradeoff by a control signal with balanced excitation and inhibition.

Journal of neurophysiology
A hallmark of flexible behavior is the brain's ability to dynamically adjust speed and accuracy in decision-making. Recent studies suggested that such adjustments modulate not only the decision threshold, but also the rate of evidence accumulation. H...

Learning Slowness in a Sparse Model of Invariant Feature Detection.

Neural computation
Primary visual cortical complex cells are thought to serve as invariant feature detectors and to provide input to higher cortical areas. We propose a single model for learning the connectivity required by complex cells that integrates two factors tha...

A Hebbian/Anti-Hebbian Neural Network for Linear Subspace Learning: A Derivation from Multidimensional Scaling of Streaming Data.

Neural computation
Neural network models of early sensory processing typically reduce the dimensionality of streaming input data. Such networks learn the principal subspace, in the sense of principal component analysis, by adjusting synaptic weights according to activi...

An Asynchronous Recurrent Network of Cellular Automaton-Based Neurons and Its Reproduction of Spiking Neural Network Activities.

IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
Modeling and implementation approaches for the reproduction of input-output relationships in biological nervous tissues contribute to the development of engineering and clinical applications. However, because of high nonlinearity, the traditional mod...

Periodic synchronization control of discontinuous delayed networks by using extended Filippov-framework.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
This paper is concerned with the periodic synchronization problem for a general class of delayed neural networks (DNNs) with discontinuous neuron activation. One of the purposes is to analyze the problem of periodic orbits. To do so, we introduce new...

A realistic bi-hemispheric model of the cerebellum uncovers the purpose of the abundant granule cells during motor control.

Frontiers in neural circuits
The cerebellar granule cells (GCs) have been proposed to perform lossless, adaptive spatio-temporal coding of incoming sensory/motor information required by downstream cerebellar circuits to support motor learning, motor coordination, and cognition. ...

Turn Down That Noise: Synaptic Encoding of Afferent SNR in a Single Spiking Neuron.

IEEE transactions on biomedical circuits and systems
We have added a simplified neuromorphic model of Spike Time Dependent Plasticity (STDP) to the previously described Synapto-dendritic Kernel Adapting Neuron (SKAN), a hardware efficient neuron model capable of learning spatio-temporal spike patterns....

Memory dynamics in attractor networks.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
As can be represented by neurons and their synaptic connections, attractor networks are widely believed to underlie biological memory systems and have been used extensively in recent years to model the storage and retrieval process of memory. In this...
