Limits to the Development of Feed-Forward Structures in Large Recurrent Neuronal Networks
Spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP) has traditionally been of great interest to theoreticians, as it seems to provide an answer to the question of how the brain can develop functional structure in response to repeated stimuli. However, despite this high level of interest, convincing demonstrations of this capacity in large, initially random networks have not been forthcoming. Such demonstr...
متن کاملPropagating synchrony in feed-forward networks
Coordinated patterns of precisely timed action potentials (spikes) emerge in a variety of neural circuits but their dynamical origin is still not well understood. One hypothesis states that synchronous activity propagating through feed-forward chains of groups of neurons (synfire chains) may dynamically generate such spike patterns. Additionally, synfire chains offer the possibility to enable r...
متن کاملAmplified Hopf Bifurcations in Feed-Forward Networks
In [18] the authors developed a method for computing normal forms of dynamical systems with a coupled cell network structure. We now apply this theory to one-parameter families of homogeneous feed-forward chains with 2-dimensional cells. Our main result is that Hopf bifurcations in such families generically generate branches of periodic solutions with amplitudes growing like ∼ |λ| 1 2 ,∼ |λ| 1 ...
متن کاملEngineered In Vitro Feed-Forward Networks
Microelectrode arrays (MEAs) are a promising new method for high throughput neuronal assays. These arrays permit non-invasive, detailed optical and multichannel electrophysiological interrogation of functional neuronal networks for drug development or neurotoxicity assessment. There has also been an effort by a number of groups to develop in vitro analogues of in vivo brain circuitry or physiol...
متن کاملGeometric Decomposition of Feed Forward Neural Networks
There have been several attempts to mathematically understand neural networks and many more from biological and computational perspectives. The field has exploded in the last decade, yet neural networks are still treated much like a black box. In this work we describe a structure that is inherent to a feed forward neural network. This will provide a framework for future work on neural networks ...
