We're hiring for a project on #SpikingNeuralNetworks and #neuromorphic computing, to start in October this year, for 36 months. Can hire at pre- or post-PhD level. Feel free to email me informally, or apply at the link below. Please do share with your networks if you know someone who would be interested.

Incorporating structural #plasticity in #SpikingNeuralNetworks (#SNN) enables dynamic #synaptic connectivity, reflecting the #brain's adaptability. By modeling synaptic growth and pruning based on #calcium concentration, we can simulate processes such as #learning and #MemoryFormation. In this post, I reproduce the #NESTSimulator tutorial on structural plasticity, demonstrating its impact on network stability and #homeostasis:

In 2000, Nicolas Brunel presented a framework for studying sparsely connected #SpikingNeuralNetworks (#SNN) with random connectivity & varied excitation-inhibition balance. The model, characterized by high sparseness & low firing rates, captures diverse neural dynamics such as synchronized regular and asynchronous irregular activity and global oscillations. Here is a brief summary of these concepts & a #PythonTuroial using the #NESTsimulator.

Due to its computational efficiency and biological plausibility, the #IzhikevichModel is an exceptional tool for understanding #neuronal interactions within #SpikingNeuralNetworks (#SNN). Here’s a quick #Python implementation of Izhikevich's original #Matlab code along with examples using different synaptic weights and neuron types, each leading to diverse spiking behaviors and network dynamics:

Special Session on #SpikingNeuralNetworks and #Neuromorphic Computing at the 33rd International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks (ICANN) 2024 - Call for Papers

Sep 17 - 20, Lugano, Switzerland

The special session invites contributions on recent advances in spiking neural networks. Spiking neural networks have gained substantial attention recently as a candidate for low latency and low power AI substrate, with implementations being explored in neuromorphic hardware. This special session aims to bring together practitioners interested in efficient learning algorithms, data representations, and applications.

ORGANIZERS:

• Sander Bohté (CWI Amsterdam, Netherlands)
• Sebastian Otte (University of Lübeck, Germany)

For all you lovers of #SpikingNeuralNetworks out there, make sure to put November 7-8 in your diary and submit a 300 word abstract to SNUFA 2023:

https://snufa.net/2023

Invited speakers this year include:
⭐ Rodolphe Sepulchre
⭐ Melika Payvand
⭐ Gabriel Ocker
⭐ Jeff Krichmar

In previous years we usually get over 700 participants, and about 200 live at each talk. Not to mention hundreds to thousands of views after the event on Youtube. Best of all - it's all free so there's really no reason you shouldn't already be writing your abstract.

And if you're still not convinced, check out previous years' talks and our monthly seminar series on my Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@neuralreckoning

Postdoc job in Bristol with Jeff Bowers, Ben Evans and me. We're going to look into how much learning you can do without modifying synaptic weights in spiking neurons. Likely important in the brain and relatively less studied theoretically.

If you like my neural heterogeneity paper (http://neural-reckoning.org/pub_heterogeneity.html) you'd probably like this project too.
