Prospects of modeling poststroke epileptogenesis

Prospects of Nonparametric Modeling

Modeling of Age-Dependent Epileptogenesis by Differential Homeostatic Synaptic Scaling.

Homeostatic synaptic plasticity (HSP) has been implicated in the development of hyperexcitability and epileptic seizures following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Our in vivo experimental studies in cats revealed that the severity of TBI-mediated epileptogenesis depends on the age of the animal. To characterize mechanisms of these differences, we studied the properties of the TBI-induced epilepto...

Neuronal mechanisms of epileptogenesis

The primary purpose of this topic is to collect scientific contributions providing novel insights in the cellular and molecular mechanisms of epileptogenesis as potential targets for innovative therapeutic approaches aimed at preventing the chronic epileptic disorder. Prevention of chronic epileptic disorder with an appropriate intervention might represent the most ambitious goal in the clinica...

User Modeling: Recent Work, Prospects and Hazards1

User modeling has made considerable progress during its existence now of more than a decade. In this paper, a survey of recent developments will be presented, which concentrates on the modeling of a user’s knowledge, plans, and preferences in a domain, on the exploitation of new sources of information about the user, on issues of representation, inference and revision, on user modeling shell sy...
