Previous theoretical work has shown that a single layer neural network can implement the optimal decision process for simple, two alternative forced choice (2AFC) tasks. However, ...

Variational Bayesian Expectation-Maximization (VBEM), an approximate inference method for probabilistic models based on factorizing over latent variables and model parameters, has ...
Neural fields are an interesting option for modelling macroscopic parts of the cortex involving several populations of neurons, like cortical areas. Two classes of neural field equ...
Making learning part of life is an essential challenge for inventing the future of our societies. Lifelong learning is a necessity rather than a possibility or a luxury to be cons...
During activated states in vivo, neocortical neurons are subject to intense synaptic activity and high-amplitude membrane potential ðVmÞ fluctuations. These ‘‘high-conducta...
