What mechanisms underlie flexible inter-areal communication in the cortex? We consider
four mechanisms for temporal coordination and their contributions to communication:(1) …

The ability to predict when something will happen facilitates sensory processing and the
ensuing computations. Building on the observation that neural activity entrains to periodic …

Neuromorphic networks of artificial neurons and synapses can solve computationally hard
problems with energy efficiencies unattainable for von Neumann architectures. For image …

Inter-areal coherence between field potentials is a widespread phenomenon in cortex.
Coherence has been hypothesized to reflect phase-synchronization between oscillators and …

Researchers have wondered how the brain creates emotions since the early days of
psychological science. With a surge of studies in affective neuroscience in recent decades …

Various hypotheses of information representation in brain, referred to as neural codes, have
been proposed to explain the information transmission between neurons. Neural coding …

A basic feature of intelligent systems such as the cerebral cortex is the ability to freely
associate aspects of perceived experience with an internal representation of the world and …

Synchronous rhythms represent a core mechanism for sculpting temporal coordination of
neural activity in the brain-wide network. This review focuses on oscillations in the cerebral …

A model is presented that reproduces spiking and bursting behavior of known types of
cortical neurons. The model combines the biologically plausibility of Hodgkin-Huxley-type …

In order to model neuronal behavior or to interpret the results of modeling studies,
neuroscientists must call upon methods of nonlinear dynamics. This book offers an …
