Conceptual circuit models of neurons.
Electronic circuit analogues of biological membranes are presented, by which the passive channels are modeled as parallel and serial combinations of resistors (Ohmic conductors) and diffusors (negative non-Ohmic conductors), and the active channels of the one-way ion pumps are modeled as one-way inductors. We show that our simple analog models can reproduce known phenomena of membrane excitabil...
متن کاملThe mirror-neurons system: data and models.
In this chapter we discuss the mirror-neurons system, a cortical network of areas that enables individuals to understand the meaning of actions performed by others through the activation of internal representations, which motorically code for the observed actions. We review evidence indicating that this capability does not depend on the amount of visual stimulation relative to the observed acti...
متن کاملConnecting mirror neurons and forward models.
Two recent developments in motor neuroscience are promising the extension of theoretical concepts from motor control towards cognitive processes, including human social interactions and understanding the intentions of others. The first of these is the discovery of what are now called mirror neurons, which code for both observed and executed actions. The second is the concept of internal models,...
متن کاملMirror neurons: functions, mechanisms and models.
Mirror neurons for manipulation fire both when the animal manipulates an object in a specific way and when it sees another animal (or the experimenter) perform an action that is more or less similar. Such neurons were originally found in macaque monkeys, in the ventral premotor cortex, area F5 and later also in the inferior parietal lobule. Recent neuroimaging data indicate that the adult human...
متن کاملmirror neurons and observational learning
in past, the relationship between traditional learning theories and neurophysiological theories wasn’t a close relationship. recently, new findings in neurological sciences showed relatively simple neuron mechanisms for somewhat complicated learning events, for example observational learning, one of which is mirror neurons. these neurons show that how the brain registers the activity observed a...
