The Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network (BCPNN) is a spiking model of the cortex. The synaptic weights of BCPNN are organized as matrices. They require substantial synaptic storage and a ...

Scientists have discovered how a key protein helps maintain strong connections between brain cells that are crucial for ...

With synaptic redundancy, we infer the ability of an isolated post-synaptic neuron to reliably convey information encoded in the spike train from a pre-synaptic neuron.

There are few scientific methods more elegantly simple than "just sprinkle it on top." Researchers at Tohoku University and ...

Foveal sensitivity to the features of an imminent saccade target increases with the target’s conspicuity, supporting foveal prediction as a viable mechanism for maintaining visual continuity in ...
