Visualizing the visual system
As part of a forthcoming planetarium show about the human brain, we are producing realistic models of the central nervous system at a variety of scales, from whole brain images to...

Computational model of dot-pattern selective cells
Abstract. A computational model of a dot-pattern selective neuron is proposed. This type of neuron is found in the inferotemporal cortex of monkeys. It responds strongly to groups ...

Reverse correlation in neurophysiology
This article presents a review of reverse correlation in neurophysiology. We discuss the basis of reverse correlation in linear transducers and in spiking neurons. The application...

Spike propagation synchronized by temporally asymmetric Hebbian learning
Synchronously spiking neurons have been observed in the cerebral cortex and the hippocampus. In computer models, synchronous spike volleys may be propagated across appropriately co...

Spiking Neural P Systems with Astrocyte-Like Control
: Spiking neural P systems are computing models inspired from the way the neurons communicate by means of spikes, electrical impulses of identical shapes. In this note we consider ...

Synchronous and asynchronous bursting states: role of intrinsic neural dynamics
Brain signals such as local field potentials often display gamma-band oscillations (30–70 Hz) in a variety of cognitive tasks. These oscillatory activities possibly reflect sy...

Modeling the acceleration sensitive neurons in the pigeon optokinetic system
Recent physiological findings revealed that about one-third of motion-sensitive neurons in the pigeon's pretectal nucleus encoded the acceleration of visual motion. Here we pr...

Serial interval statistics of spontaneous activity in cortical neurons in vivo and in vitro
Stationary spiking of single neurons is often modelled by a renewal point process. Here, we tested the underlying model assumption that the inter-spike intervals are mutually inde...
