How can we get such reliable behavior from the mind when the brain is made up of such unreliable elements as neurons? We propose that the answer is related to the emergence of stab...
Neurons in the input layer of primary visual cortex in primates develop edge-like receptive fields. One approach to understanding the emergence of this response is to state that ...
ABSTRACT: The lobster stomatogastric ganglion contains 30 neurons and when modulated can produce two distinct rhythmic motor patterns--the gastric mill and the pyloric. The complet...
A basic understanding of the relationship between activity of individual neurons and macroscopic electrical activity of local field potentials or electroencephalogram (EEG) may pro...

The self-organising map (SOM) has been successfully employed as a nonparametric method for dimensionality reduction and data visualisation. However, for visualisation the SOM requ...
The firing rate of neurons in parietal area 7a of the behaving Rhesus monkey with its head fixed incorporates both visual and eye position information. This neural tuning is not ...
For a network of spiking neurons that encodes information in the timing of individual spike times, we derive a supervised learning rule, SpikeProp, akin to traditional errorbackpr...

We investigate the formation of ordered spatiotemporal activations of pools of neurons in synfire chains (SFC) within a balanced network, both by simulations and by analytic tools...
Abstract. A stochastic spike train analysis technique is introduced to reveal the correlation between the firing of the next spike and the temporal integration period of two conse...
The aim of this paper is to study an Information Theory based learning theory for neural units endowed with adaptive activation functions. The learning theory has the target to fo...
