This work presents the current collection of mathematical models related to neural networks and proposes a new family of such with extended structure and dynamics in order to attain a selection of cognitive capabilities. It starts by…

Although the results are correct, it was pointed out that the results follow from some previously known results. Accordingly, this version of the paper is withdrawn by the authors.
This paper has been withdrawn by the author, since one of the key results duplicates existing work, as pointed out by a reader. I am currently revising the manuscript.
This paper introduces a class of stochastic models of interacting neurons with emergent dynamics similar to those seen in local cortical populations, and compares them to very simple reduced models driven by the same mean excitatory and…
The field of computational modeling of the brain is advancing so rapidly that now it is possible to model large scale networks representing different brain regions with a high level of biological detail in terms of numbers and synapses. For…
A fundamental challenge in networked systems is detection and removal of suspected malicious nodes. In reality, detection is always imperfect, and the decision about which potentially malicious nodes to remove must trade off false positives…
Sometimes it is not enough for a DNN to produce an outcome. For example, in applications such as healthcare, users need to understand the rationale of the decisions. Therefore, it is imperative to develop algorithms to learn models with…
The paper is being withdrawn since the authors felt that the submission is a little premature after a careful reading by some of the experts in this field.

We investigate the dynamics of two models of biological networks with purely suppressive interactions between the units; species interacting via niche competition and neurons via inhibitory synaptic coupling. In both of these cases,…
The emerging field at the intersection of quantitative biology, network modeling, and control theory has enjoyed significant progress in recent years. This Special Issue brings together a selection of papers on complementary approaches to…
A fundamental function of cortical circuits is the integration of information from different sources to form a reliable basis for behavior. While animals behave as if they optimally integrate information according to Bayesian probability…
Dale's principle implies that biological neural networks are composed of neurons that are either excitatory or inhibitory. While the number of possible architectures of such Daleian networks is exponentially smaller than non-Daleian ones,…
Neural networks are composed of neurons and synapses, which are responsible for learning in a slow adaptive dynamical process. Here we experimentally show that neurons act like independent anisotropic multiplex hubs, which relay and mute…

Despite vast research in adversarial examples, the root causes of model susceptibility are not well understood. Instead of looking at attack-specific robustness, we propose a notion that evaluates the sensitivity of individual neurons in…
Biological networks, such as cellular metabolic pathways or networks of corticocortical connections in the brain, are intricately organized, yet remarkably robust toward structural damage. Whereas many studies have investigated specific…
Biological neural networks continue to inspire breakthroughs in neural network performance. And yet, one key area of neural computation that has been under-appreciated and under-investigated is biologically plausible, energy-efficient…
