We study the interplay of Bayesian inference and natural image learning in a hierarchical vision system, in relation to the response properties of early visual cortex. We particularly focus on a Bayesian network with multinomial variables that can represent discrete feature spaces similar to hypercolumns combining minicolumns, enforce sparsity of activation to learn efficient representations, and explain divisive normalization. We demonstrate that maximal-likelihood learning using sampling-based Bayesian inference gives rise to classical receptive field properties similar to V1 simple cells and V2 cells, while inference performed on the trained network yields nonclassical context-dependent response properties such as cross-orientation suppression and filling in. Comparison with known physiological properties reveals some qualitative and quantitative similarities. 相似文献

We demonstrate a model in which synchronously firing ensembles of neurons are networked to produce computational results. Each ensemble is a group of biological integrate-and-fire spiking neurons, with probabilistic interconnections between groups. An analogy is drawn in which each individual processing unit of an artificial neural network corresponds to a neuronal group in a biological model. The activation value of a unit in the artificial neural network corresponds to the fraction of active neurons, synchronously firing, in a biological neuronal group. Weights of the artificial neural network correspond to the product of the interconnection density between groups, the group size of the presynaptic group, and the postsynaptic potential heights in the synchronous group model. All three of these parameters can modulate connection strengths between neuronal groups in the synchronous group models. We give an example of nonlinear classification (XOR) and a function approximation example in which the capability of the artificial neural network can be captured by a neural network model with biological integrate-and-fire neurons configured as a network of synchronously firing ensembles of such neurons. We point out that the general function approximation capability proven for feedforward artificial neural networks appears to be approximated by networks of neuronal groups that fire in synchrony, where the groups comprise integrate-and-fire neurons. We discuss the advantages of this type of model for biological systems, its possible learning mechanisms, and the associated timing relationships. 相似文献

Starting from the hypothesis that the mammalian neocortex to a first approximation functions as an associative memory of the attractor network type, we formulate a quantitative computational model of neocortical layers 2/3. The model employs biophysically detailed multi-compartmental model neurons with conductance based synapses and includes pyramidal cells and two types of inhibitory interneurons, i.e., regular spiking non-pyramidal cells and basket cells. The simulated network has a minicolumnar as well as a hypercolumnar modular structure and we propose that minicolumns rather than single cells are the basic computational units in neocortex. The minicolumns are represented in full scale and synaptic input to the different types of model neurons is carefully matched to reproduce experimentally measured values and to allow a quantitative reproduction of single cell recordings. Several key phenomena seen experimentally in vitro and in vivo appear as emergent features of this model. It exhibits a robust and fast attractor dynamics with pattern completion and pattern rivalry and it suggests an explanation for the so-called attentional blink phenomenon. During assembly dynamics, the model faithfully reproduces several features of local UP states, as they have been experimentally observed in vitro, as well as oscillatory behavior similar to that observed in the neocortex. 相似文献

Associative neural memories are models of biological phenomena that allow for the storage of pattern associations and the retrieval of the desired output pattern upon presentation of a possibly noisy or incomplete version of an input pattern. In this paper, we introduce implicative fuzzy associative memories (IFAMs), a class of associative neural memories based on fuzzy set theory. An IFAM consists of a network of completely interconnected Pedrycz logic neurons with threshold whose connection weights are determined by the minimum of implications of presynaptic and postsynaptic activations. We present a series of results for autoassociative models including one pass convergence, unlimited storage capacity and tolerance with respect to eroded patterns. Finally, we present some results on fixed points and discuss the relationship between implicative fuzzy associative memories and morphological associative memories 相似文献

The CA3 region of the hippocampus is a recurrent neural network that is essential for the storage and replay of sequences of patterns that represent behavioral events. Here we present a theoretical framework to calculate a sparsely connected network's capacity to store such sequences. As in CA3, only a limited subset of neurons in the network is active at any one time, pattern retrieval is subject to error, and the resources for plasticity are limited. Our analysis combines an analytical mean field approach, stochastic dynamics, and cellular simulations of a time-discrete McCulloch-Pitts network with binary synapses. To maximize the number of sequences that can be stored in the network, we concurrently optimize the number of active neurons, that is, pattern size, and the firing threshold. We find that for one-step associations (i.e., minimal sequences), the optimal pattern size is inversely proportional to the mean connectivity c, whereas the optimal firing threshold is independent of the connectivity. If the number of synapses per neuron is fixed, the maximum number P of stored sequences in a sufficiently large, nonmodular network is independent of its number N of cells. On the other hand, if the number of synapses scales as the network size to the power of 3/2, the number of sequences P is proportional to N. In other words, sequential memory is scalable. Furthermore, we find that there is an optimal ratio r between silent and nonsilent synapses at which the storage capacity alpha = P//[c(1 + r)N] assumes a maximum. For long sequences, the capacity of sequential memory is about one order of magnitude below the capacity for minimal sequences, but otherwise behaves similar to the case of minimal sequences. In a biologically inspired scenario, the information content per synapse is far below theoretical optimality, suggesting that the brain trades off error tolerance against information content in encoding sequential memories. 相似文献

This work concisely reviews and unifies the analysis of different variants of neural associative networks consisting of binary neurons and synapses (Willshaw model). We compute storage capacity, fault tolerance, and retrieval efficiency and point out problems of the classical Willshaw model such as limited fault tolerance and restriction to logarithmically sparse random patterns. Then we suggest possible solutions employing spiking neurons, compression of the memory structures, and additional cell layers. Finally, we discuss from a technical perspective whether distributed neural associative memories have any practical advantage over localized storage, e.g., in compressed look-up tables. 相似文献

We study a model of the cortical macrocolumn consisting of a collection of inhibitorily coupled minicolumns. The proposed system overcomes several severe deficits of systems based on single neurons as cerebral functional units, notably limited robustness to damage and unrealistically large computation time. Motivated by neuroanatomical and neurophysiological findings, the utilized dynamics is based on a simple model of a spiking neuron with refractory period, fixed random excitatory interconnection within minicolumns, and instantaneous inhibition within one macrocolumn. A stability analysis of the system's dynamical equations shows that minicolumns can act as monolithic functional units for purposes of critical, fast decisions and learning. Oscillating inhibition (in the gamma frequency range) leads to a phase-coupled population rate code and high sensitivity to small imbalances in minicolumn inputs. Minicolumns are shown to be able to organize their collective inputs without supervision by Hebbian plasticity into selective receptive field shapes, thereby becoming classifiers for input patterns. Using the bars test, we critically compare our system's performance with that of others and demonstrate its ability for distributed neural coding. 相似文献

Temporal information processing, for instance the temporal association, plays an important role on many functions of brain. Among the various dynamics of neural networks, dynamic depression synapses and chaotic behavior have been regarded as the intriguing characteristics of biological neurons. In this paper, temporal association based on dynamic synapses and chaotic neurons is proposed. Interestingly, by introducing dynamic synapses into a temporal association, we found that the sequence storage capacity can be enlarged, that the transition time between patterns in the sequence can be shortened, and that the stability of the sequence can be enhanced. For particular interest, owing to chaotic neurons, the steady-state period becomes shorter in the temporal association and it can be adjusted by changing the parameter values of chaotic neurons. Simulation results demonstrating the performance of the temporal association are presented. 相似文献

Almost all applications of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) depend mainly on their memory ability. The characteristics of
typical ANN models are fixed connections, with evolved weights, globalized representations, and globalized optimizations,
all based on a mathematical approach. This makes those models to be deficient in robustness, efficiency of learning, capacity,
anti-jamming between training sets, and correlativity of samples, etc. In this paper, we attempt to address these problems
by adopting the characteristics of biological neurons in morphology and signal processing. A hierarchical neural network was
designed and realized to implement structure learning and representations based on connected structures. The basic characteristics
of this model are localized and random connections, field limitations of neuron fan-in and fan-out, dynamic behavior of neurons,
and samples represented through different sub-circuits of neurons specialized into different response patterns. At the end
of this paper, some important aspects of error correction, capacity, learning efficiency, and soundness of structural representation
are analyzed theoretically. This paper has demonstrated the feasibility and advantages of structure learning and representation.
This model can serve as a fundamental element of cognitive systems such as perception and associative memory. 相似文献

We propose a new principle for replicating receptive field properties of neurons in the primary visual cortex. We derive a learning rule for a feedforward network, which maintains a low firing rate for the output neurons (resulting in temporal sparseness) and allows only a small subset of the neurons in the network to fire at any given time (resulting in population sparseness). Our learning rule also sets the firing rates of the output neurons at each time step to near-maximum or near-minimum levels, resulting in neuronal reliability. The learning rule is simple enough to be written in spatially and temporally local forms. After the learning stage is performed using input image patches of natural scenes, output neurons in the model network are found to exhibit simple-cell-like receptive field properties. When the output of these simple-cell-like neurons are input to another model layer using the same learning rule, the second-layer output neurons after learning become less sensitive to the phase of gratings than the simple-cell-like input neurons. In particular, some of the second-layer output neurons become completely phase invariant, owing to the convergence of the connections from first-layer neurons with similar orientation selectivity to second-layer neurons in the model network. We examine the parameter dependencies of the receptive field properties of the model neurons after learning and discuss their biological implications. We also show that the localized learning rule is consistent with experimental results concerning neuronal plasticity and can replicate the receptive fields of simple and complex cells. 相似文献

A previously developed method for efficiently simulating complex networks of integrate-and-fire neurons was specialized to the case in which the neurons have fast unitary postsynaptic conductances. However, inhibitory synaptic conductances are often slower than excitatory ones for cortical neurons, and this difference can have a profound effect on network dynamics that cannot be captured with neurons that have only fast synapses. We thus extend the model to include slow inhibitory synapses. In this model, neurons are grouped into large populations of similar neurons. For each population, we calculate the evolution of a probability density function (PDF), which describes the distribution of neurons over state-space. The population firing rate is given by the flux of probability across the threshold voltage for firing an action potential. In the case of fast synaptic conductances, the PDF was one-dimensional, as the state of a neuron was completely determined by its transmembrane voltage. An exact extension to slow inhibitory synapses increases the dimension of the PDF to two or three, as the state of a neuron now includes the state of its inhibitory synaptic conductance. However, by assuming that the expected value of a neuron's inhibitory conductance is independent of its voltage, we derive a reduction to a one-dimensional PDF and avoid increasing the computational complexity of the problem. We demonstrate that although this assumption is not strictly valid, the results of the reduced model are surprisingly accurate. 相似文献

Winner-take-all networks have been proposed to underlie many of the brain's fundamental computational abilities. However, not much is known about how to extend the grouping of potential winners in these networks beyond single neuron or uniformly arranged groups of neurons. We show that competition between arbitrary groups of neurons can be realized by organizing lateral inhibition in linear threshold networks. Given a collection of potentially overlapping groups (with the exception of some degenerate cases), the lateral inhibition results in network dynamics such that any permitted set of neurons that can be coactivated by some input at a stable steady state is contained in one of the groups. The information about the input is preserved in this operation. The activity level of a neuron in a permitted set corresponds to its stimulus strength, amplified by some constant. Sets of neurons that are not part of a group cannot be coactivated by any input at a stable steady state. We analyze the storage capacity of such a network for random groups--the number of random groups the network can store as permitted sets without creating too many spurious ones. In this framework, we calculate the optimal sparsity of the groups (maximizing group entropy). We find that for dense inputs, the optimal sparsity is unphysiologically small. However, when the inputs and the groups are equally sparse, we derive a more plausible optimal sparsity. We believe our results are the first steps toward attractor theories in hybrid analog-digital networks. 相似文献

Edge storage stores the data directly at the data collection point, and does not need to transmit the collected data to the storage central server through the network. It is a critical technology that supports applications such as edge computing and 5G network applications, with lower network communication overhead, lower interaction delay and lower bandwidth cost. However, with the explosion of data and higher real-time requirements, the traditional Internet of Things (IoT) storage architecture cannot meet the requirements of low latency and large capacity. Non-volatile memory (NVM) presents new possibilities regarding this aspect. This paper classifies the different storage architectures based on NVM and compares the system goals, architectures, features, and limitations to explore new research opportunities. Moreover, the existing solutions to reduce the write latency and energy consumption and increase the lifetime of NVM IoT storage devices are analyzed. Furthermore, we discuss the security and privacy issues of IoT devices and compare the mainstream solutions. Finally, we present the opportunities and challenges of building IoT storage systems based on NVM. 相似文献
