Covariance Plasticity and Regulated Criticality
We propose that a regulation mechanism based on Hebbian covariance plasticity may cause the brain to operate near criticality. We analyze the e ect of such a regulation on the dynamics of a network with excitatory and inhibitory neurons and uniform connectivity within and across the two populations. We show that, under broad conditions, the system converges to a critical state lying at the comm...
متن کاملReceptive-field plasticity in the adult auditory cortex induced by Hebbian covariance.
The goal of this experiment was to evaluate the role of cellular interactions postulated by the Hebbian, or covariance, hypothesis in the induction of receptive-field (RF) plasticity in the adult auditory cortex (ACx). This was accomplished by determining whether a "covariance treatment" (see below) was sufficient to induce RF plasticity without behavioral experiences that normally induce such ...
متن کاملRobustness of Learning That Is Based on Covariance-Driven Synaptic Plasticity
It is widely believed that learning is due, at least in part, to long-lasting modifications of the strengths of synapses in the brain. Theoretical studies have shown that a family of synaptic plasticity rules, in which synaptic changes are driven by covariance, is particularly useful for many forms of learning, including associative memory, gradient estimation, and operant conditioning. Covaria...
متن کاملVisualization of Covariance and Cross-covariance Fields
We present a numerical technique to visualize covariance and cross-covariance fields of a stochastic simulation. The method is local in the sense that it demonstrates the covariance structure of the solution at a point with its neighboring locations. When coupled with an efficient stochastic simulation solver, our framework allows one to effectively concurrently visualize both the mean and (cro...
متن کاملLimited plasticity in the phenotypic variance-covariance matrix for male advertisement calls in the black field cricket, Teleogryllus commodus.
Phenotypic integration and plasticity are central to our understanding of how complex phenotypic traits evolve. Evolutionary change in complex quantitative traits can be predicted using the multivariate breeders' equation, but such predictions are only accurate if the matrices involved are stable over evolutionary time. Recent study, however, suggests that these matrices are temporally plastic,...
