Short-term plasticity in a computational model of the tail-withdrawal circuit in Aplysia
The tail-withdrawal circuit of Aplysia provides a useful model system for investigating synaptic dynamics. Sensory neurons within the circuit manifest several forms of synaptic pl...

A method for speeding up feature extraction based on KPCA
Kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) extracts features of samples with an efficiency in inverse proportion to the size of the training sample set. In this paper, we develop...

Palmprint recognition with 2DPCA+PCA based on modular neural networks
In this letter, a novel modular neural network (MNN) classifier, which partitions a K-class problem into many much easier two-class problems in sub-subspaces, was proposed to per...
