Abstract:
In this paper, we study collective dynamics of the network of rate neurons which constitute a central element of a reservoir computing system. The main objective of the paper is to identify the dynamic behaviors inside the reservoir underlying the performance of basic machine learning tasks, such as generating patterns with specified characteristics. We build a reservoir computing system which includes a reservoir-a network of interacting rate neurons-and an output element that generates a target signal. We study individual activities of interacting rate neurons, while implementing the task and analyze the impact of the dynamic parameter-a time constant-on the quality of implementation.

Parameters Affecting Nonlinear Elimination: Zero-Order Input, First-Order Absorption and Two-Compartment Model
When a drug is administered through a constant intravenous infusion and eliminated via nonlinear pharmacokinetics, it follows zero-order input. For example, oral drugs undergo first-order absorption upon administration and are eliminated through nonlinear pharmacokinetics.
In the case of subcutaneously administered drugs,...
The Role of Ion Channels in Neuronal Computation
Sometimes a single EPSP is strong enough to induce an action potential in the postsynaptic neuron. However, multiple presynaptic inputs must often create EPSPs around the same time for the postsynaptic neuron to be sufficiently depolarized to fire an action potential....
