We explore some presynaptic mechanisms of the calyx of Held synapse through a stochastic model. The model, drawn from a kinetic approach developed in literature, exploits process c...

One of the first steps of any visual system is that of locating suitable interest points, ‘salient regions’, in the scene, to detect events, and eventually to direct gaze towa...
Abstract—We present a silicon neuron that uses shunting inhibition (conductance-based) with a synaptic rise-time to achieve synchrony. Synaptic rise-time promotes synchrony by de...
This paper presents the main results of a three-year long field and design study of proactive information technology in the home. This technology uses sensors to track human activ...
