Synaptic plasticity provides the basis for most models of learning, memory and development
in neural circuits. To generate realistic results, synapse-specific Hebbian forms of plasticity, …

Neurons are often considered to be the computational engines of the brain, with synapses
acting solely as conveyers of information. But the diverse types of synaptic plasticity and the …

Soil contains approximately 2344Gt (1 gigaton=1 billion tonnes) of organic carbon globally
and is the largest terrestrial pool of organic carbon. Small changes in the soil organic carbon …

… Exercises are provided for this purpose on the web site for this book, http://mitpress.mit.edu/dayan-abbott.

Cortical neurons receive synaptic inputs from thousands of afferents that fire action potentials
at rates ranging from less than 1 hertz to more than 200 hertz. Both the number of afferents …

Hebbian models of development and learning require both activity-dependent synaptic
plasticity and a mechanism that induces competition between different synapses. One form of …

… Because of the presence of vertices proportional to l/a, one cannot go to the limit =0 until
after the calculation has been performed and all 1/a factors have cancelled. Thus, during the …
