چکیده

Artificial spike-based computation, inspired by models of computations in the central nervous system, may present significant performance advantages over traditional methods for specific types of large scale problems. In this paper, we study new models for two common instances of such computation, winner-take-all and coincidence detection. In both cases, very fast convergence is achieved independent of initial conditions, and network complexity is linear in the number of inputs.

K-Winners-Take-All Computation with Neural Oscillators

Artificial spike-based computation, inspired by models of computation in the central nervous system, may present significant performance advantages over traditional methods for specific types of large scale problems. This paper describes very simple network architectures for k-winners-take-all and soft-winner-take-all computation using neural oscillators. Fast convergence is achieved from arbit...

Computation with phase oscillators: An oscillatory perceptron model

We present a perceptron model with processing units consisting of coupled phase oscillators. The processing units are able to compute the input signals through a high order synapse mechanism. We show how a network of these elements can be used in analogy to the classical multilayer feedforward neural network. The main characteristics of the classical multilayer perceptron model are conserved, a...

Synchrony and Desynchrony in Integrate-and-Fire Oscillators

Due to many experimental reports of synchronous neural activity in the brain, there is much interest in understanding synchronization in networks of neural oscillators and its potential for computing perceptual organization. Contrary to Hopfield and Herz (1995), we find that networks of locally coupled integrate-and-fire oscillators can quickly synchronize. Furthermore, we examine the time need...

Dynamical Consequences of Fast-Rising, Slow-Decaying Synapses in Neuronal Networks

Synapses that rise quickly but have long persistence are shown to have certain computational advantages. They have some unique mathematical properties as well and in some instances can make neurons behave as if they are weakly coupled oscillators. This property allows us to determine their synchronization properties. Furthermore, slowly decaying synapses allow recurrent networks to maintain exc...

Quantum-like model of behavioral response computation using neural oscillators

In this paper we propose the use of neural interference as the origin of quantum-like effects in the brain. We do so by using a neural oscillator model consistent with neurophysiological data. The model used was shown elsewhere to reproduce well the predictions of behavioral stimulus-response theory. The quantum-like effects are brought about by the spreading activation of incompatible oscillat...
