Journal ArticleDOI

Temporal receptive fields, spikes, and Hebbian delay selection

TL;DR: It is argued that the success of the learning procedure strongly depends on an interplay of, in particular, the temporal parameters of neuron (model) and learning window, and under what conditions the noisy synaptic dynamics can be regarded as a diffusion process.
Journal ArticleDOI

The map in your head: how does the brain represent the outside world?

TL;DR: This introduction focuses on temporal aspects and show how temporal maps arise in the brain through prey localization the sand scorpion, the barn owl, and the paddle fish provide fascinating examples of neuronal maps, which are analyzed in detail.
Journal ArticleDOI

Testing resonating vector strength: Auditory system, electric fish, and noise.

TL;DR: This work studies the synchrony vector, whose length stands for the vector strength, and focuses on neuronal response in terms of spike times, showing that the resonating vector strength always performs a clear resonance correlated with the phase locking that it quantifies.
Book ChapterDOI

Associative binding and segregation in a network of spiking neurons

TL;DR: A model of an associative network of spiking neurons with stationary states, globally locked oscillations, and weakly locked oscillatory states is presented and analyzed and the question of synchronization between the two hemispheres of the brain is addressed.

Does Corticothalamic Feedback Control Cortical Velocity Tuning

TL;DR: In extensive computer simulations, the novel hypothesis that the visual cortex controls via feedback the temporal response properties of geniculate relay cells in a way that alters the tuning of cortical cells for speed is elaborate.
