The tail-withdrawal circuit of Aplysia provides a useful model system for investigating synaptic dynamics. Sensory neurons within the circuit manifest several forms of synaptic pl...
Hebbian cell assemblies have been proposed as a model for cortical processing able to bridge between physiology and psychology. Assembly-based theories focused mainly on represent...
In many studies of self-organized criticality (SOC), branching processes were used to model the dynamics of the activity of the system during avalanches. This mathematical simpliï...
Neural reliability and stochastic synchronization are remarkable features of real neurons with important consequences for neural computation. Both phenomena are general properties...
Nearby neurons in the visual cortex often partially synchronize their spiking activity. Despite the widespread observation of this phenomenon, its importance for visual coding and...
