Few algorithms for supervised training of spiking neural networks exist that can deal with patterns of multiple spikes, and their computational properties are largely unexplored. We demonstrate in a set of simulations that the ReSuMe…

Spiking Neural Networks~(SNNs) are a promising research paradigm for low power edge-based computing. Recent works in SNN backpropagation has enabled training of SNNs for practical tasks. However, since spikes are binary events in time,…

Neurons in the primary visual cortex are more or less selective for the orientation of a light bar used for stimulation. A broad distribution of individual grades of orientation selectivity has in fact been reported in all species. A…

Sensory stimuli are usually composed of different features (the what) appearing at irregular times (the when). Neural responses often use spike patterns to represent sensory information. The what is hypothesized to be encoded in the…

Much of studies on neural computation are based on network models of static neurons that produce analog output, despite the fact that information processing in the brain is predominantly carried out by dynamic neurons that produce discrete…

We introduce a new supervised learning algorithm based to train spiking neural networks for classification. The algorithm overcomes a limitation of existing multi-spike learning methods: it solves the problem of interference between…

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are widely regarded as a biologically-inspired and energy-efficient alternative to classical artificial neural networks. Yet, their theoretical foundations remain only partially understood. In this work, we…

Spatio-temporal receptive fields (STRF) of visual neurons are often estimated using spike-triggered averaging of binary pseudo-random stimulus sequences. The spike train of a visual neuron is recorded simultaneously with the stimulus…

Periodic neural activity not locked to the stimulus or to motor responses is usually ignored. Here, we present new tools for modeling and quantifying the information transmission based on periodic neural activity that occurs with…

This paper presents a vehicle lateral controller based on spiking neural networks capable of replicating the behavior of a model-based controller but with the additional ability to perform online adaptation. By making use of neural…

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) promise low-power event-driven computation for temporally rich tasks, but commonly used neuron models often trade off gradient-based trainability, dynamical richness, and high activity sparsity. These…

One of the main current issues in Neurobiology concerns the understanding of interrelated spiking activity among multineuronal ensembles and differences between stimulus-driven and spontaneous activity in neurophysiological experiments.…

Numerical calculations have been made on the spike-train response of a pair of Hodgkin-Huxley (HH) neurons coupled by synapses and axons with time delay. The recurrent excitatory-excitatory, inhibitory-inhibitory, excitatory-inhibitory, and…

Neurons communicate with downstream systems via sparse and incredibly brief electrical pulses, or spikes. Using these events, they control various targets such as neuromuscular units, neurosecretory systems, and other neurons in connected…

Spiking neural networks play an important role in brain-like neuromorphic computations and in studying working mechanisms of neural circuits. One drawback of training a large scale spiking neural network is that updating all weights is…

Spike synchrony, which occurs in various cortical areas in response to specific perception, action and memory tasks, has sparked a long-standing debate on the nature of temporal organization in cortex. One prominent view is that this type…

We consider a stochastic model describing the spiking activity of a countable set of neurons spatially organized into a homogeneous tree of degree $d$, $d \geq 2$; the degree of a neuron is just the number of connections it has. Roughly,…

In spiking neural networks, the information is conveyed by the spike times, that depend on the intrinsic dynamics of each neuron, the input they receive and on the connections between neurons. In this article we study the Markovian nature…

In this paper we address the question of statistical model selection for a class of stochastic models of biological neural nets. Models in this class are systems of interacting chains with memory of variable length. Each chain describes the…

Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have gained popularity due to their high energy efficiency. Prior works have proposed various methods for training SNNs, including backpropagation-based methods. Training SNNs is computationally expensive…
