In this work, we present a local intrinsic rule that we developed, dubbed IP, inspired by the Infomax rule. Like Infomax, this rule works by controlling the gain and bias of a neuron to regulate its rate of fire. We discuss the biological plausibilit...

Weighted spiking neural P systems with anti-spikes (AWSN P systems) are proposed by adding anti-spikes to spiking neural P systems with weighted synapses. Anti-spikes behave like spikes of inhibition of communication between neurons. Both spikes and ...
Inspired by the information transmission mechanism in the central nervous systems of life, synapse-mimicking devices have been designed and fabricated for the purpose of breaking the bottleneck of von Neumann architecture and realizing the constructi...

Based on the feature and communication of neurons in animal neural systems, spiking neural P systems (SN P systems) were proposed as a kind of powerful computing model. Considering the length of axons and the information transmission speed on synapse...
A crossbar array architecture employing resistive switching memory (RRAM) as a synaptic element accelerates vector-matrix multiplication in a parallel fashion, enabling energy-efficient pattern recognition. To implement the function of the synapse in...
BACKGROUND: Retinal circuitry provides a fundamental window to neural networks, featuring widely investigated visual phenomena ranging from direction selectivity to fast detection of approaching motion. As the divide between experimental and theoreti...
Spiking neural networks (SNN) are computational models inspired by the brain's ability to naturally encode and process information in the time domain. The added temporal dimension is believed to render them more computationally efficient than the con...

Presynaptic and postsynaptic neurotoxins are two types of neurotoxins from venomous animals and functionally important molecules in the neurosciences; however, their experimental characterization is difficult, time-consuming, and costly. Therefore, b...

It was recently found that dendrites are not just a passive channel. They can perform mixed computation of analog and digital signals, and therefore can be abstracted as information processors. Moreover, dendrites possess a feedback mechanism. Motiva...
