Neuron Network Simulation Taking into Consideration the Biological Properties of Neuron

The NEURON Simulation Environment

The moment-to-moment processing of information by the nervous system involves the propagation and interaction of electrical and chemical signals that are distributed in space and time. Biologically realistic modeling is needed to test hypotheses about the mechanisms that govern these signals and how nervous system function emerges from the operation of these mechanisms. The NEURON simulation pr...

The Neuron Simulation Program

This article describes a nerve simulation program, called \NEURON", developed in collaboration with John W. Moore at Duke University. NEURON was designed for two kinds of problems: 1) where cable properties of cells play an important role, possibly including extracellular potential close to the membrane, and 2) where cell membrane properties are complex, involvingmany ion-speci c channels and i...

Model of a Biological Neuron as a Temporal Neural Network

A biological neuron can be viewed as a device that maps a multidimensional temporal event signal (dendritic postsynaptic activations) into a unidimensional temporal event signal (action potentials). We have designed a network, the Spatio-Temporal Event Mapping (STEM) architecture, which can learn to perform this mapping for arbitrary biophysical models of neurons. Such a network appropriately t...
