A Sparse Generative Model of V1 Simple Cells with Intrinsic Plasticity
Current models for the learning of feature detectors work on two time scales: on a fast time scale the internal neurons' activations adapt to the current stimulus; on a slow ...

On the Relevance of Long-Range Dependence in Network Traffic
There is much experimental evidence that network traffic processes exhibit ubiquitous properties of self-similarity and long-range dependence, i.e., of correlations over a wide ran...
