Abstract
Inspired by the motion processing pathway, this paper proposes a bio-inspired feedforward spiking network model based on Hodgkin–Huxley neurons for human motion perception. The proposed network mimics the mechanisms of direction selectivity found in simple and complex cells of the primary visual cortex. Simple cells' receptive fields are modeled using Gabor energy filters, while complex cells' receptive fields are constructed by integrating the responses of simple cells in an energy model. To generate the motion map, the spiking output of the network integrates motion information encoded by the responses of complex cells with various preferred directions. Simulation results demonstrate that the spiking neuron-based network effectively replicates the directional selectivity operation of the visual cortex when presented with a sequence of time-varying images. We evaluate the proposed model against state-of-the-art spiking neuron-based motion detection models using publicly available datasets. The results highlight the model's capability to extract motion energy from diverse video sequences, akin to human visual motion perception models. Additionally, we showcase the application of the proposed model in motion segmentation tasks and compare its performance with state-of-the-art motion-based segmentation models using challenging video segmentation benchmarks. The results indicate competitive performance. The motion maps generated by the proposed model can be utilized for action recognition in input videos.
期刊介绍:
Cognitive Neurodynamics provides a unique forum of communication and cooperation for scientists and engineers working in the field of cognitive neurodynamics, intelligent science and applications, bridging the gap between theory and application, without any preference for pure theoretical, experimental or computational models.
The emphasis is to publish original models of cognitive neurodynamics, novel computational theories and experimental results. In particular, intelligent science inspired by cognitive neuroscience and neurodynamics is also very welcome.
The scope of Cognitive Neurodynamics covers cognitive neuroscience, neural computation based on dynamics, computer science, intelligent science as well as their interdisciplinary applications in the natural and engineering sciences. Papers that are appropriate for non-specialist readers are encouraged.
1. There is no page limit for manuscripts submitted to Cognitive Neurodynamics. Research papers should clearly represent an important advance of especially broad interest to researchers and technologists in neuroscience, biophysics, BCI, neural computer and intelligent robotics.
2. Cognitive Neurodynamics also welcomes brief communications: short papers reporting results that are of genuinely broad interest but that for one reason and another do not make a sufficiently complete story to justify a full article publication. Brief Communications should consist of approximately four manuscript pages.
3. Cognitive Neurodynamics publishes review articles in which a specific field is reviewed through an exhaustive literature survey. There are no restrictions on the number of pages. Review articles are usually invited, but submitted reviews will also be considered.
