Engineers at the University of Liège have taken a major step forward in the architecture of artificial neural networks by creating a new type of spiking neuron. Called the Spiking Recurrent Cell (SRC) ...

The growing energy use of AI has gotten a lot of people working on ways to make it less power hungry. One option is to develop processors that are a better match to the sort of computational needs of ...

At the neuron level, the inhibiting autapse is incorporated into the leaky integrate-and-fire neuron model, resulting in a highly parameterized microcircuit with memory ability. At the learning level, ...

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) often are touted as a way to get close to the power efficiency of the brain, but there is widespread confusion about what exactly that means. In fact, there is ...

Neuromorphic computing — where computers function like human brains to perform complex tasks much more efficiently than current computers — holds promise for breakthroughs in artificial intelligence ...

The project attempts to investigate how what we know influences the way we see, with the goal to shed light on why post traumatic stress disorder patients suffer from flashbacks, unwanted ...

Researchers at the Baylor College of Medicine and the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute at the Texas Children’s Hospital have uncovered a new cell type in the human brain. The team ...

Scientists have developed a new kind of laser-based artificial neuron that mimics a biological nerve cell. This artificial neuron could boost high-speed computing and artificial intelligence (AI), ...
