Area of Science:

• Neuroscience
• Computational Biology
• Bionic Engineering

Background:

• Biological neural networks exhibit remarkable self-organization and robustness.
• Understanding information transmission and synaptic plasticity is crucial for bionic applications.
• Spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) is a key mechanism in neural adaptation.

Purpose of the Study:

• To explore the self-organization robustness of biological neural networks.
• To investigate the relationship between synaptic plasticity and adaptive characteristics.
• To provide new methods for electromagnetic bionic protection.

Main Methods:

• Studied neural network information transmission and STDP mechanisms.
• Constructed a feedforward neural network using the Izhikevich model and STDP.
• Analyzed the adaptive robust capacity of the constructed network.

Main Results:

• The neural network based on the STDP mechanism demonstrated significant robustness.
• The observed robustness was closely linked to the properties of STDP.
• Simulation results validated the adaptive capacity of the STDP-based network.

Conclusions:

• STDP is fundamental to the robust self-organization of neural networks.
• This research provides a foundation for designing adaptive, robust electronic circuits.
• Future work includes building cell circuits to simulate biological nervous systems for bionic design.
