Neurons in the brain use an event signal, termed spike, encode temporal information for neural computation. Spiking neural networks (SNNs) take this advantage to serve as biological relevant models. However, the effective encoding of sensory informat...
When modeling auditory responses to environmental sounds, results are satisfactory if both training and testing are restricted to datasets of one type of sound. To predict 'cross-sound' responses (i.e., to predict the response to one type of sound e....

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) possess energy-efficient potential due to event-based computation. However, supervised training of SNNs remains a challenge as spike activities are non-differentiable. Previous SNNs training methods can be generally cat...

We present a framework based on iterative free-energy optimization with spiking neural networks for modeling the fronto-striatal system (PFC-BG) for the generation and recall of audio memory sequences. In line with neuroimaging studies carried out in...
A central tenet of neuroscience is that the brain works through large populations of interacting neurons. With recent advances in recording techniques, the inner working of these populations has come into full view. Analyzing the resulting large-scal...

Neural networks have enabled great advances in recent times due mainly to improved parallel computing capabilities in accordance to Moore's Law, which allowed reducing the time needed for the parameter learning of complex, multi-layered neural archit...
Analytical tools that estimate the directed information flow between simultaneously recorded neural populations, such as directed information or Granger causality, typically focus on measuring how much information is exchanged between such population...

Artificial neural networks (ANNs), a popular path towards artificial intelligence, have experienced remarkable success via mature models, various benchmarks, open-source datasets, and powerful computing platforms. Spiking neural networks (SNNs), a ca...
In computational neural network models, neurons are usually allowed to excite some and inhibit other neurons, depending on the weight of their synaptic connections. The traditional way to transform such networks into networks that obey Dale's law (i....
