Reinforcement Learning, Spike-Time-Dependent Plasticity, and the BCM Rule
Learning agents, whether natural or artificial, must update their internal parameters in order to improve their behavior over time. In reinforcement learning, this plasticity is ...

Phase Transition and Hysteresis in an Ensemble of Stochastic Spiking Neurons
An ensemble of stochastic non-leaky integrate-and-fire neurons with global, delayed and excitatory coupling and a small refractory period is analyzed. Simulations with adiabatic ...

Distortion of Neural Signals by Spike Coding
Analog neural signals must be converted into spike trains for transmission over electrically leaky axons. This spike encoding and subsequent decoding leads to distortion. We quant...

Models Wagging the Dog: Are Circuits Constructed with Disparate Parameters?
In a recent paper Prinz et al. (Nature Neurosci. 7, 1345-52 (2004)) have addressed the fundamental question, whether neural systems are built with a fixed blueprint of tightly con...

Training a Support Vector Machine in the Primal
Most literature on Support Vector Machines (SVMs) concentrate on the dual optimization problem. In this paper, we would like to point out that the primal problem can also be solve...
