Neuromodulation of decision and response selection
We present a model for the attentional neuromodulation of decision and selection processes. The model assumes that phasic responses in the brain nucleus Locus Coeruleus modulate, ...

Bayesian model search for mixture models based on optimizing variational bounds
When learning a mixture model, we suffer from the local optima and model structure determination problems. In this paper, we present a method for simultaneously solving these prob...

Optimal design of regularization term and regularization parameter by subspace information criterion
The problem of designing the regularization term and regularization parameter for linear regression models is discussed. Previously, we derived an approximation to the generalizat...

Neuromodulation and plasticity in an autonomous robot
In this paper we implement a computational model of a neuromodulatory system in an autonomous robot. The output of the neuromodulatory system acts as a value signal, modulating wi...

Dopamine-dependent plasticity of corticostriatal synapses
Knowledge of the effect of dopamine on corticostriatal synaptic plasticity has advanced rapidly over the last 5 years. We consider this new knowledge in relation to three factors ...

A self-organising network that grows when required
The ability to grow extra nodes is a potentially useful facility for a self-organising neural network. A network that can add nodes into its map space can approximate the input sp...

Cellular, synaptic and network effects of neuromodulation
All network dynamics emerge from the complex interaction between the intrinsic membrane properties of network neurons and their synaptic connections. Nervous systems contain numer...

Synapses as dynamic memory buffers
This article throws new light on the possible role of synapses in information transmission through theoretical analysis and computer simulations. We show that the internal dynamic...
