In this paper, the hardware implementation of a neuromorphic system is presented. This system is composed of a Leaky Integrate-and-Fire with Latency (LIFL) neuron and a Spike-Timing Dependent Plasticity (STDP) synapse. LIFL neuron model…

We present an array of leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) neuron circuits designed for the second-generation BrainScaleS mixed-signal 65-nm CMOS neuromorphic hardware. The neuronal array is embedded in the analog network core of a scaled-down…

Designing analog sub-threshold neuromorphic circuits in deep sub-micron technologies e.g. 28 nm can be a daunting task due to the problem of excessive leakage current. We propose novel energy-efficient hybrid CMOS-nano electro-mechanical…

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are the current state-of-the-art models in many speech related tasks. There is a growing interest, though, for more biologically realistic, hardware friendly and energy efficient models, named Spiking Neural…

We introduce an exactly integrable version of the well-known leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) model, with continuous membrane potential at the spiking event, the c-LIF. We investigate the dynamical regimes of a fully connected network of…

The apparent stochasticity of in-vivo neural circuits has long been hypothesized to represent a signature of ongoing stochastic inference in the brain. More recently, a theoretical framework for neural sampling has been proposed, which…

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) offer a promising, biologically inspired approach for processing spatiotemporal data, particularly for time series forecasting. However, conventional neuron models like the Leaky Integrate-and-Fire (LIF)…

We examine the effects of stochastic input currents on the firing behavior of two excitable neurons coupled with fast excitatory synapses. In such cells (models), typified by the quadratic integrate and fire model, mutual synaptic coupling…

We study analytically the dynamics of a network of sparsely connected inhibitory integrate-and-fire neurons in a regime where individual neurons emit spikes irregularly and at a low rate. In the limit when the number of neurons N tends to…

The gain of neurons' responses in the auditory cortex is sensitive to contrast changes in the stimulus within a spectrotemporal range similar to their receptive fields, which can be interpreted to represent the tuning of the input to a…

We study in this paper the effect of an unique initial stimulation on random recurrent networks of leaky integrate and fire neurons. Indeed given a stochastic connectivity this so-called spontaneous mode exhibits various non trivial…

While criticality is widely observed in neural networks, its underlying neural mechanism is not known well. We consider a network of $N$ excitatory leaky integrated and fire (LIF) neurons that reside on a regular lattice with periodic…

We study a system of perfect integrate-and-fire inhibitory neurons. It is a system of stochastic processes which interact through receiving an instantaneous increase at the moments they reach certain thresholds. In the absence of…

Interest in understanding the interplay between noise and the response of a non-linear device cuts across disciplinary boundaries. It is as relevant for unmasking the dynamics of neurons in noisy environments as it is for designing reliable…

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are promising brain-inspired energy-efficient models. Compared to conventional deep Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), SNNs exhibit superior efficiency and capability to process temporal information. However,…

Neurons display spontaneous spiking (in the absence of stimulus signals) as well as a characteristic response to time-dependent external stimuli. In a simple but important class of stochastic neuron models, the integrate-and-fire model with…

Nonlinear Noisy Leaky Integrate and Fire (NNLIF) models for neurons networks can be written as Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov equations on the probability density of neurons, the main parameters in the model being the connectivity of the network…

We develop a formalism to analyze the behaviour of pulse--coupled identical phase oscillators with a specific attention devoted to the onset of partial synchronization. The method, which allows describing the dynamics both at the…

Recent studies of cortical neurons driven by fluctuating currents revealed cutoff frequencies for action potential encoding of several hundred Hz. Theoretical studies of biophysical neuron models have predicted a much lower cutoff frequency…

A population of firing neurons is expected to carry not only mean firing rate but also its fluctuation and synchrony among neurons. In order to examine this possibility, we have studied responses of neuronal ensembles to three kinds of…
