Learning in networks of cortical neurons.
The results presented here demonstrate selective learning in a network of real cortical neurons. We focally stimulate the network at a low frequency (0.3-1 Hz) until a desired predefined response is observed 50 +/- 10 msec after a stimulus, at which point the stimulus is stopped for 5 min. Repeated cycles of this procedure ultimately lead to the desired response being directly elicited by the s...
متن کاملSelective adaptation in networks of cortical neurons.
A key property of neural systems is their ability to adapt selectively to stimuli with different features. Using multisite electrical recordings from networks of cortical neurons developing ex vivo, we show that neurons adapt selectively to different stimuli invading the network. We focus on selective adaptation to frequent and rare stimuli; networks were stimulated at two sites with two differ...
متن کاملResponses of primary somatosensory cortical neurons to controlled mechanical stimulation.
The results of psychophysical studies suggest that displacement velocity may contribute significantly to the sensation of subcortical somatosensory neurons. The cortical correlates of these phenomena, however, are not known. In the present study the responses of rapidly adapting (RA) neurons in the forelimb region of cat primary somatosensory cortex (SI) to controlled displacement of skin and h...
متن کاملReinforcement Learning in Cortical Networks
Reinforcement learning represents a basic paradigm of learning in artificial intelligence and biology. The paradigm considers an agent (robot, human, animal) that acts in a typically stochastic environment and receives rewards when reaching certain states. The agent’s goal is to maximize the expected reward by choosing the optimal action at any given state. In a cortical implementation, the sta...
متن کاملSerotonin modulation of cortical neurons and networks
The serotonergic pathways originating in the dorsal and median raphe nuclei (DR and MnR, respectively) are critically involved in cortical function. Serotonin (5-HT), acting on postsynaptic and presynaptic receptors, is involved in cognition, mood, impulse control and motor functions by (1) modulating the activity of different neuronal types, and (2) varying the release of other neurotransmitte...
