The oculomotor neural integrator is a brainstem nucleus that stores the short term memory of eye position during gaze holding. This neural integrator is believed to perform temporal integration of transient eye velocity input using positive feedback. Such models of integration are known to suffer from a fine-tuning problem [9] since changes in the amount of feedback by less than 10% can de-tune...

Knowledge of accuracy of numerical integration is important for composing an overall numerical error budget; in orbit determination and propagation for space surveillance, there is frequently a computation time-accuracy tradeoff that must be balanced. There are several techniques to assess the accuracy of a numerical integrator. In this paper we compare some of those techniques: comparison with...

Synapses play a critical role in memory, learning, and cognition. Their main functions include converting pre-synaptic voltage spikes to post-synaptic currents, as well scaling the input signal. Several brain-inspired architectures have been proposed emulate behavior of biological synapses. While these are useful explore properties nervous systems, challenge making biocompatible flexible circui...
