#computationalneuroscience — Public Fediverse posts

When an animal moves, its visual system adjusts its neuronal activity to process the changing environmental input, but this adjustment operates on the same mathematical evolutionary principles across both mice and primates despite differing sensory outputs.

The brain uses flexible, multipurpose neural circuits—specifically in the prefrontal cortex—that can be repurposed to store different types of information, such as sensory inputs or action plans, rather than relying on separate, dedicated neurons for every distinct task.

New preprint! What happens if you add neuromodulation to spiking neural networks and let them go wild with it? TLDR: it can improve performance especially in challenging sensory processing tasks.

It’s actually very easy and straightforward setting up a large-scale, multi-population #SpikingNeuralNetwork (#SNN) with the #NESTsimulator. Here is an example with two distinct populations of #Izhikevich neurons:

Mmm...
Once I was surfing the net for some papers in CNS and I came across a paper about Natural Language Processing all of a sudden and I realized There aren't any real Spiking Neural Networks that are bio plausible for NLP.

I started reading some papers and some books to gain more knowledge about Language comprehension and language generation but no real model suggestions yet.

Do anyone know any labs working on NLP in Computational neuroscience or how to connect with them?

A Thousand Brains : a new theory of intelligence

Hi :)
I'm a new member of this amazing community and I would like to have my first post on the amazing breakthrough of Jeff Hawkins.

Before giving my opinion, I would like everyone to tell me whether they know the theory of have they read the book or the original papers and If so what's their insight on them?

I think the material in this research is pretty much fascinating and would like to engage and talk about it more.
