A Novel Approach to Implementing Artificial Thalamic Neurons with Ferroelectric Transistors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Artificial neurons created using CMOS technology often require a large number of transistors and capacitors. This study introduces an artificial thalamic neuron that employs only five CMOS compatible ferroelectric transistors. The manufactured thalamic neuron demonstrates leaky integrate‐and‐fire‐or‐burst (LIFB) functionalities, featuring self ...

Storage Capacity Diverges with Synaptic Efficiency in an Associative Memory Model with Synaptic Delay and Pruning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
It is known that storage capacity per synapse increases by synaptic pruning in the case of a correlation-type associative memory model. However, the storage capacity of the entire network then decreases. To overcome this difficulty, we propose decreasing

Optimal percentage of inhibitory synapses in multi-task learning

open access: yes, 2015
Performing more tasks in parallel is a typical feature of complex brains. These are characterized by the coexistence of excitatory and inhibitory synapses, whose percentage in mammals is measured to have a typical value of 20-30\%.

All‐in‐One Analog AI Hardware: On‐Chip Training and Inference with Conductive‐Metal‐Oxide/HfOx ReRAM Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An all‐in‐one analog AI accelerator is presented, enabling on‐chip training, weight retention, and long‐term inference acceleration. It leverages a BEOL‐integrated CMO/HfOx ReRAM array with low‐voltage operation (<1.5 V), multi‐bit capability over 32 states, low programming noise (10 nS), and near‐ideal weight transfer.

Projections from thalamic nucleus reuniens to hippocampal CA1 area participate in context fear extinction by affecting extinction-induced molecular remodeling of excitatory synapses

open access: yeseLife
The ability to extinguish contextual fear in a changing environment is crucial for animal survival. Recent data support the role of the thalamic nucleus reuniens (RE) and its projections to the dorsal hippocampal CA1 area (RE→dCA1) in this process ...

Influence of Autapses on Synchronization in Neural Networks With Chemical Synapses

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2020
A great deal of research has been devoted on the investigation of neural dynamics in various network topologies. However, only a few studies have focused on the influence of autapses, synapses from a neuron onto itself via closed loops, on neural ...

The Versatile Synapse [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 1984
ABSTRACT‘Typically’ chemical synaptic transmission takes place when an influx of calcium ions during a presynaptic nerve impulse triggers exocytosis of neurotransmitter substance from synaptic vesicles. The neurotransmitter diffuses across the synaptic cleft and occupies receptors embedded in the subsynaptic membrane.

Spiking Neural P Systems with Addition/Subtraction Computing on Synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Spiking neural P systems (SN P systems, for short) are a class of distributed and parallel computing models inspired from biological spiking neurons.

Optogenetic Interrogation of Functional Synapse Formation by Corticospinal Tract Axons in the Injured Spinal Cord [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
To restore function after injury to the CNS, axons must be stimulated to extend into denervated territory and, critically, must form functional synapses with appropriate targets. We showed previously that forced overexpression of the transcription factor

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...
