In the past few decades, feedforward neural networks have gained much attraction in their hardware implementations. However, when we realize a neural network in analog circuits, the circuit-based model is sensitive to hardware nonidealities. The noni...
Experiential richness creates tissue-level changes and synaptic plasticity as patterns emerge from rhythmic spatiotemporal activity of large interconnected neuronal assemblies. Despite numerous experimental and computational approaches at different s...
Brains are not engineered solutions to a well-defined problem but arose through selective pressure acting on random variation. It is therefore unclear how well a model chosen by an experimenter can relate neural activity to experimental conditions. H...
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...

Research on modeling and mechanisms of the brain remains the most urgent and challenging task. The customized embedded neuromorphic system is one of the most effective approaches for multi-scale simulations ranging from ion channel to network. This p...
Reconstructing connectivity of neuronal networks from single-cell activity is essential to understanding brain function, but the challenge of deciphering connections from populations of silent neurons has been largely unmet. We demonstrate a protocol...

Spike-based perception brings up a new research idea in the field of neuromorphic engineering. A high-performance biologically inspired flexible spiking neural network (SNN) architecture provides a novel method for the exploration of perception mecha...
Motor decoding is crucial to translate the neural activity for brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and provides information on how motor states are encoded in the brain. Deep neural networks (DNNs) are emerging as promising neural decoders. Nevertheless...

We argue the Fisher information matrix (FIM) of one hidden layer networks with the ReLU activation function. For a network, let W denote the d×p weight matrix from the d-dimensional input to the hidden layer consisting of p neurons, and v the p-dimen...
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...
