GABA diffusion across neuronal columns for efficient sensory tuning.

Biological cybernetics
Synaptic (phasic) lateral inhibition between neuronal columns mediated by GABAergic interneurons is, in general, essential for primary sensory cortices to respond selectively to elemental features. We propose here a neural network model with a nonsyn...

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....

Regulation of Local Ambient GABA Levels via Transporter-Mediated GABA Import and Export for Subliminal Learning.

Neural computation
Perception of supraliminal stimuli might in general be reflected in bursts of action potentials (spikes), and their memory traces could be formed through spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP). Memory traces for subliminal stimuli might be formed i...

Experimental demonstration of a second-order memristor and its ability to biorealistically implement synaptic plasticity.

Nano letters
Memristors have been extensively studied for data storage and low-power computation applications. In this study, we show that memristors offer more than simple resistance change. Specifically, the dynamic evolutions of internal state variables allow ...

Spiking Neural Membrane Systems with Adaptive Synaptic Time Delay.

International journal of neural systems
Spiking neural membrane systems (or spiking neural P systems, SNP systems) are a new type of computation model which have attracted the attention of plentiful scholars for parallelism, time encoding, interpretability and extensibility. The original S...

Neural Information Processing and Computations of Two-Input Synapses.

Neural computation
Information processing in artificial neural networks is largely dependent on the nature of neuron models. While commonly used models are designed for linear integration of synaptic inputs, accumulating experimental evidence suggests that biological n...

Characterization of multiscale logic operations in the neural circuits.

Frontiers in bioscience (Landmark edition)
: Ever since the seminal work by McCulloch and Pitts, the theory of neural computation and its philosophical foundation known as 'computationalism' have been central to brain-inspired artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. The present study descr...

Propagation delays determine neuronal activity and synaptic connectivity patterns emerging in plastic neuronal networks.

Chaos (Woodbury, N.Y.)
In plastic neuronal networks, the synaptic strengths are adapted to the neuronal activity. Specifically, spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) is a fundamental mechanism that modifies the synaptic strengths based on the relative timing of pre- and...

Global firing rate contrast enhancement in E/I neuronal networks by recurrent synchronized inhibition.

Chaos (Woodbury, N.Y.)
Inhibitory synchronization is commonly observed and may play some important functional roles in excitatory/inhibitory (E/I) neuronal networks. The firing rate contrast enhancement is a general feature of information processing in sensory pathways, an...

[Hardware Implementation of Numerical Simulation Function of Hodgkin-Huxley Model Neurons Action Potential Based on Field Programmable Gate Array].

Sheng wu yi xue gong cheng xue za zhi = Journal of biomedical engineering = Shengwu yixue gongchengxue zazhi
Neuron is the basic unit of the biological neural system. The Hodgkin-Huxley (HH) model is one of the most realistic neuron models on the electrophysiological characteristic description of neuron. Hardware implementation of neuron could provide new r...
