Learning about Learning - by Directly Driving Networks of Neurons
... New behaviors require new patterns of neural activity among the population of neurons that control behavior. How can the brain find a pattern of activity appropriate for the desired behavior? Why does that learning process take time? To tackle questions like these, we reverse the normal order of ope ...

Abstract View ANALOG TO DIGITAL CONVERSION USING RECURRENT SPIKING NEURAL NETWORKS ;
... Networks of integrate-and-fire neurons with recurrent feedback can perform analog to digital conversion at a rate that is proportional to the size of the network (E.K.Ressler et al, 2004, Proc. SPIE Int. Soc. Opt. Eng. 5200, 91). The individual neurons are coordinated using feedback in a manner that ...
