Channel identification machines for multidimensional receptive fields
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present algorithms for identifying multidimensional receptive fields directly from spike trains produced by biophysically-grounded neuron models. We demonstrate that only the projection of a receptive field onto the input stimulus space may be perfectly identified and derive conditions under which this identification is possible. We also provide detailed examples of identification of neural circuits incorporating spatiotemporal and spectrotemporal receptive fields.

Assessing the Effectiveness of Holistic Multidimensional Treatment Model (Hojjati Model) on Receptive and Expressive Language Skills in Autistic Children
Background: Autism as part of the category called Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is caused by disorders in brain and nervous network and characterized by defect in social behavior, language and cognition. This study aimed to investigate receptive and expressive language performance and the severity of the disorder in 30 children with autism aged 2-8 years who speak in Persian language. Materi...
متن کاملFunctional Identification of Spike-Processing Neural Circuits
We introduce a novel approach for a complete functional identification of biophysical spike-processing neural circuits. The circuits considered accept multidimensional spike trains as their input and comprise a multitude of temporal receptive fields and conductance-based models of action potential generation. Each temporal receptive field describes the spatiotemporal contribution of all synapse...

متن کاملChannel Identification Machines
We present a formal methodology for identifying a channel in a system consisting of a communication channel in cascade with an asynchronous sampler. The channel is modeled as a multidimensional filter, while models of asynchronous samplers are taken from neuroscience and communications and include integrate-and-fire neurons, asynchronous sigma/delta modulators and general oscillators in cascade...
متن کاملStorage capacities of committee machines with overlapping and non-overlapping receptive fields
We present theoretical investigations via the replica theory of the storage capacities of committee machines with a large numberM of hidden units and spherical weights. Difficulties arise in the solution of this problem in the limit of large M . In the case of overlapping receptive fields, as the number of patterns increases, both permutation symmetry and replica symmetry are broken, which lead...
