Visual focus with spiking neurons
Attentional focusing can be implemented with a neural field [1], which uses a discharge rate code. As an alternative, we propose in the present work an implementation based on spik...

A novel autoassociative memory on the complex hypercubic lattice
In this paper we have defined a novel activation function called the multi-level signum for the real and complex valued associative memories. The major motivation of such a functio...
