Collective plasticity and individual stability in cultured neuronal networks
Cultured neuronal networks generate spontaneous activity in the form of synchronized bursting events (SBEs)--short time events during which most of the recorded neurons fire rapid...

Predicting synchronized neural assemblies from experimentally estimated phase-resetting curves
Neural-network dynamics frequently organize in assemblies of synchronized neurons that are thought to encode and store sensory information. We have investigated the mechanisms lea...

Evolving networks of integrate-and-fire neurons
This paper addresses the following question: ``What neural circuits can emulate the monosynaptic correlogram generated by a direct connection between two neurons?'' The ...

Nonlinear Behaviour in the MPI-Parallelised Model of the Rat Somatosensory Cortex
Mammalian brains consisting of up to 1011 neurons belong to group of the most complex systems in the Universe. For years they have been one of the hardest objects of simulation. Th...

Temporal sequence detection with spiking neurons: towards recognizing robot language instructions
We present an approach for recognition and clustering of spatio temporal patterns based on networks of spiking neurons with active dendrites and dynamic synapses. We introduce a n...

A Quantitative Theory of Neural Computation
We show how a general quantitative theory of neural computation can be used to explain two recent experimental findings in neuroscience. The first of these findings is that in hum...

Ghost resonance in a pool of heterogeneous neurons
We numerically study the subharmonic response of a heterogeneous pool of neurons to a pair of independent inputs. The neurons are stimulated with periodic pulse trains of frequenc...

Determination of the fraction of active inputs required by a neuron to fire
What fraction of the inputs to a neuron in the primary visual cortex (V1) need to be active for that neuron to reach its firing threshold? The paper describes a numerical method f...

The linearity of emergent spectro-temporal receptive fields in a model of auditory cortex
The responses of cortical neurons are often characterized by measuring their spectro-temporal receptive fields (strfs). The strf of a cell can be thought of as a representation of...

Multivariate profiling of neurodegeneration-associated changes in a subcellular compartment of neurons via image processing
Background: Dysfunction in the endolysosome, a late endosomal to lysosomal degradative intracellular compartment, is an early hallmark of some neurodegenerative diseases, in parti...
