Microcircuits in the brain -- Some reflections on the relationships between neuroscience and computation -- Different types of temporal correlations obtained in pairs of thalamic visual neurons suggest different functional patterns of connectivity -- Development of on-off and off-on receptive fields using a semistochastic model -- The classification of spatial, chromatic, and intensity features of simple visual stimuli by a network of retinal ganglion cells -- Geometric model of orientation tuning dynamics in striate neurons -- Neuronal circuitry in the medial cerebral cortex of lizards -- Interactions between environmental and hormonal oscillations induce plastic changes in a simple neuroendocrine transducer -- Current Source Density analysis as a tool to constrain the parameter space in hippocampal CA1 neuron models -- Spontaneous activity of hippocampal cells in various physiological states -- Neural network model of striatal complex -- Symmetry and self-organization of the ocul
Summary: This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Work-Conference on Artificial Neural Networks, IWANN'97, held in Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain, in June 1997. The volume presents 142 revised full papers selected from an overwhelming wealth of submissions. The volume is divided into sections on biological foundations of neural computation, formal tools and computational models of neurons and neural nets architectures, plasticity phenomena, complex systems dynamics, cognitive science and AI, neural nets simulation, emulation and implementation, methodology for data analysis, task selection and net design, neural networks for perception, and neural networks for communications, control and robotics.
