In order to reduce the time cost, the temporal convolutional network (TCN) model is adopted to predict the time series of hippocampal EF induced by TI-DMS. It takes coil configuration and loaded current as input and predicts the time series of maximum and mean values of the left and right hippocampal EF. The prediction takes only a few seconds. The model parameter combination of kernel size and layers is selected optimally by cross-validation method. The experimental results for multiple subjects show that the R<sup>2</sup> of all the time series predicted by the model exceed 0.98.

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.

As such, an artificial system aspiring to implement any of these aspects of general intelligence should be able to support this operation. I argue here that standard, feed-forward deep neural networks (DNNs) are unable to implement this function, whereas an alternative, fully brain-constrained class of neural architectures spontaneously exhibits it. On the basis of novel simulations, this proof-of-concept article shows that deep, brain-like networks trained with biologically realistic Hebbian learning mechanisms display the spontaneous emergence of internal circuits (cell assemblies) having features that make them natural candidates for supporting superposition. Building on previous computational modelling results, I also argue that, and offer an explanation as to why, in contrast, modern DNNs trained with gradient descent are generally unable to co-activate their internal representations. While deep brain-constrained neural architectures spontaneously develop the ability to support superposition as a result of (1) neurophysiologically accurate learning and (2) cortically realistic between-area connections, backpropagation-trained DNNs appear to be unsuited to implement this basic cognitive operation, arguably necessary for abstract thinking and general intelligence.

Bifurcation trees of period-1 to period-2 waveforms as well as independent bifurcation tree of period-3 to period-6 waveforms are obtained theoretically. The independent bifurcation tree should be taken much care during the control since it coexists with global stable waveforms but contains more spikes. Stability and bifurcations of the nonlinear waveform transitions are predicted by eigenvalue analysis of the discretized model. The transient process from unstable waveform to stable waveform is illustrated. The spike adding and period-doubling phenomenon are presented for illustration of the network response after control.

The intrinsic energy of the neuron is enlarged after introducing the memristor.

This experiment examined how different metrical structures affect tension experience and explored the underlying neural activities. The electroencephalogram (EEG) was recorded and subjective tension was rated simultaneously while participants listened to music meter sequences. On large time scale of whole meter sequences, it was found that different overall tension and low-frequency (1 ~ 4 Hz) steady-state evoked potentials were elicited by metrical structures with different periods of strong beats, and the higher overall tension was associated with metrical structure with the shorter intervals between strong beats. On small time scale of measures, dynamic tension fluctuations within measures was found to be associated with the periodic modulations of high-frequency (10 ~ 25 Hz) neural activities. The comparisons between the same beats within measures and across different meters both on small and large time scales verified the contextual effects of meter on tension induced by beats. Our findings suggest that the overall tension is determined by temporal intervals between strong beats, and the dynamic tension experience may arise from cognitive processing of hierarchical temporal expectation and attention, which are discussed under the theoretical frameworks of metrical hierarchy, musical expectation and dynamic attention.</p>","PeriodicalId":10500,"journal":{"name":"Cognitive Neurodynamics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139506599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, the seizures onset zones (SOZs) of MTLE locate in these regions. However, whether the neural features of SOZs are specific to different medial temporal structures are still unclear and need more investigation. To address this question, the present study tracked the features of two different high frequency oscillations (HFOs) in the SOZs of these regions during MTLE seizures from 10 drug-resistant MTLE patients, who received the stereo electroencephalography (SEEG) electrodes implantation surgery in the medial temporal structures. Remarkable difference of HFOs features, including the proportions of HFOs contacts, percentages of HFOs contacts with significant coupling and firing rates of HFOs, could be observed in the SOZs among three medial temporal structures during seizures. Specifically, we found that the amygdala might contribute to the generation of MTLE seizures, while the hippocampus plays a critical role for the propagation of MTLE seizures. In addition, the HFOs firing rates in SOZ regions were significantly larger than those in NonSOZ regions, suggesting the potential biomarkers of HFOs for MTLE seizure. Moreover, there existed higher percentages of SOZs contacts in the HFOs contacts than in all SEEG contacts, especially those with significant coupling to slow oscillations, implying that specific HFOs features would help identify the SOZ regions.
