Generic origins of irregular spiking in neocortical networks
We identify generic sources of complex and irregular spiking in biological neural networks. For the network description, we operate on a mathematically exact mesoscopic approach. S...

Computational Differences between Asymmetrical and Symmetrical Networks
Symmetrically connected recurrent networks have recently been used as models of a host of neural computations. However, biological neural networks have asymmetrical connections, at...

Characterizing Self-developing Biological Neural Networks: A First Step Towards Their Application to Computing Systems
Carbon nanotubes are often seen as the only alternative technology to silicon transistors. While they are the most likely short-term alternative, other longer-term alternatives sho...
