Reconstruction, Identification and Implementation Methods for Spiking Neural Circuits

af Dorian Florescu

This work is motivated by the ongoing open question of how information in the outside world is represented and processed by the brain. Consequently, several novel methods are developed.A new mathematical formulation is proposed for the encoding and decoding of analog signals using integrate-and-fire neuron models. Based on this formulation, a novel algorithm, significantly faster than the state-of-the-art method, is proposed for reconstructing the input of the neuron.Two new identification metho... (Læs mere)
