  1. 1. Computational Analysis of Thalamocortical Communication of Auditory Information using Pairwise Spike Recordings

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Xinxing Guo; [2022]
    Keywords : Thalamocortical; basal forebrain stimulation; Jensen-Shannon divergence; auditory system; coordination; Talokortisk; stimulering av bashjärnan; Jensen-Shannon divergens; hörselsystem; koordination;

    Abstract : Investigating the properties and mechanisms of coordination among neurons plays an important role in understanding how the brain encodes information and performs in thalamocortical processing in the auditory system. Whether the coordinated neuronal spikes in the auditory thalamus enhance the thalamocortical communications in the auditory cortex (AC) is the main concern in this project. READ MORE

  2. 2. A 3D-printed  Fat-I BC-enabled prosthetic  arm: Control  based on brain neuronal data

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Sahana Ravikumar; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Neuroprosthetics enhance a variety of artificial devices that can beused to improve the quality of motor, sensory defects that emerge frombrain-injuries. Brain-Computer interface, as the name suggests,en compasses the interaction between brain and environment. READ MORE

  3. 3. Neural response of a Neuron population : A mathematical modelling approach

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Avdelningen för medicinsk teknik

    Author : Henrik Podéus; [2021]
    Keywords : Neurovascular coupling; The brain; Mathematical modelling; Systems Biology; Neural communication;

    Abstract : The brain – the organ that allows us to be aware of our surroundings – consists of a complex network of neurons, which seemingly allows the human brain to be able of abstract thinking, emotions, and cognitive function. To learn how the brain is capable of this, the two main branches of neuroscience study either neurons in detail, or how they communicate within neuronal networks. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Neural Mechanisms of Reward and Addiction : A Review of the Role of Dopamine in Cocaine Addiction

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Hanna Nilsson; [2018]
    Keywords : neural communication; dopamine; reward; addiction; cocaine;

    Abstract : Cocaine is known for its severe addictive properties and still, there is no effective treatment for cocaine addiction. Cocaine is a powerful chemical substance. It enters the brain rapidly and cause abnormal high levels of dopamine. Dopamine is found to be the neural correlate for reward. READ MORE

  5. 5. Developing a spiking neural model of Long Short-Term Memory architectures

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik

    Author : Isabella Pozzi; [2018]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Current advances in Deep Learning have shown significant improvements in common Machine Learning applications such as image, speech and text recognition. Specifically, in order to process time series, deep Neural Networks (NNs) with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) units are widely used in sequence recognition problems to store recent information and to use it for future predictions.
