Computational neuroscience

  • Dendritic spine
    A dendritic spine (or spine) is a small membranous protrusion from a neuron's dendrite that typically receives input from a single axon at the synapse.
  • Biological neuron model
    A biological neuron model, also known as a spiking neuron model, is a mathematical model of the electrical properties of neuronal action potentials, which are sharp changes in the electrical potential across the cell membrane that last for about one millisecond.
  • Artificial neural network
    Neural Networks (also referred to as connectionist systems) are a computational approach which is based on a large collection of neural units loosely modeling the way the brain solves problems with large clusters of biological neurons connected by axons.
  • Action potential
    In physiology, an action potential is a short-lasting event in which the electrical membrane potential of a cell rapidly rises and falls, following a consistent trajectory.
  • Artificial general intelligence
    Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is the intelligence of a (hypothetical) machine that could successfully perform any intellectual task that a human being can.
  • Neural oscillation
    Neural oscillation is rhythmic or repetitive neural activity in the central nervous system.
  • Laurent Itti
    Laurent Itti (born December 12, 1970 in Tours, France) is a computational neuroscientist.
  • Nervous system network models
    Network of human nervous system comprises nodes (for example, neurons) that are connected by links (for example, synapses).
  • NEST (software)
    NEST is a simulation software for spiking neural network models, including large-scale neuronal networks.
  • Connectome: How the Brain's Wiring Makes Us Who We Are
    Connectome: How the Brain's Wiring Makes Us Who We Are (2012) is a book by Sebastian Seung.
  • Brian (software)
    Brian is an open source Python package for developing simulations of networks of spiking neurons.
  • Ogi Ogas
    Ogi Jonathan Ogas is an American writer who received doctoral training as a computational neuroscientist.
  • Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems
    The Conference and Workshop on Neural Information Processing Systems (NIPS) is a machine learning and computational neuroscience conference held every December.
  • Neuroinformatics (journal)
    Neuroinformatics is a scientific journal published by Springer under the imprint Humana Press.
  • Budapest Reference Connectome
    The Budapest Reference Connectome computes the frequently appearing anatomical brain connections of 418 healthy subjects.
  • Neuron (software)
    Neuron is a simulation environment for modeling individual neurons and networks of neurons.
  • Artificial consciousness
    Artificial consciousness (AC), also known as machine consciousness (MC) or synthetic consciousness (; ), is a field related to artificial intelligence and cognitive robotics.
