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, ...

In signal restoration by Bayesian inference, one typically uses a parametric model of the prior distribution of the signal. Here, we consider how the parameters of a prior model s...
The functions of sleep have been an enduring mystery. Recently, Tononi and Cirelli hypothesized that one of the functions of slow-wave sleep is to scale down synapses in the corte...
Spike correlations between neurons are ubiquitous in the cortex, but their role is at present not understood. Here we describe the firing response of a leaky integrate-and-fire ne...
