Neural networks and Machine Learning By Marius Yamakou, FAU DCN-AvH, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg Neural Networks with time delayed connections Neurons communicate with each other through electrical signals. It is well known that these signals are oscillatory and that the properties of the oscillations depend on the characteristics of the individual neurons, […]
Stochastic Synchronization of Chaotic Neurons By Marius Yamakou, FAU DCN-AvH, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg Real biological neurons can show chaotic dynamics when excited by the certain external input current. The behavior of these neurons is characterized by instability and, as a result, limited predictability in time. Mathematically, a system is chaotic […]
