Novel data acquisition schemes have been an emerging need for scanning microscopy based imaging techniques to reduce the time in data acquisition and to minimize probing radiation in sample exposure. Varies sparse sampling schemes have been studied and are ideally suited for such applications where the images can be re…

We give a short answer to the question in the title: {\em dendrits}. Precisely we show that the -algebra of all complex-valued continuous functions on a compactum is projective in the category of all (not necessarily commutative) unital -algebras if and only if is a…
Natural gradient learning improves synaptic plasticity in spiking neurons.
We show that a compact n-polyhedron PL embeds in a product of n trees if and only if it collapses onto an (n-1)-polyhedron. If the n-polyhedron is contractible and n\ne 3 (or n=3 and the Andrews-Curtis Conjecture holds), the product of trees may be assumed to collapse onto the image of the embedding. In contrast, there…
In order to classify linearly non-separable data, neurons are typically organized into multi-layer neural networks that are equipped with at least one hidden layer. Inspired by some recent discoveries in neuroscience, we propose a new model of artificial neuron along with a novel activation function enabling the learni…
Study of projective Fraïssé limits of trees with confluent epimorphisms.
Hippocampal dentate granule cells are among the few neuronal cell types generated throughout adult life in mammals. In the normal brain, new granule cells are generated from progenitors in the subgranular zone and integrate in a typical fashion. During the development of epilepsy, granule cell integration is profoundly…
Labyrinth fractals are self-similar dendrites in the unit square that are defined with the help of a labyrinth set or a labyrinth pattern. In the case when the fractal is generated by a horizontally and vertically blocked pattern, the arc between any two points in the fractal has infinite length [Cristea\&Steinsky 2009…
Study shows how activation functions impact the storage capacity of treelike neural networks.
When 1 -> H -> G -> Q -> 1 is a short exact sequence of three infinite, word-hyperbolic groups, Mahan Mitra (Mj) has shown that the inclusion map from H to G extends continuously to a map between the Gromov boundaries of H and G. This boundary map is known as the Cannon-Thurston map. In this context, Mitra associates t…
Study properties of self-similar continua with finite intersection property.
Data driven segmentation is an important initial step of shape prior-based segmentation methods since it is assumed that the data term brings a curve to a plausible level so that shape and data terms can then work together to produce better segmentations. When purely data driven segmentation produces poor results, the …
Developed Taylor series for muscle-finger system analysis.
Paper accelerates nonlinear mapping in online systems with lower time complexity.
Calcium imaging has revolutionized systems neuroscience, providing the ability to image large neural populations with single-cell resolution. The resulting datasets are quite large, which has presented a barrier to routine open sharing of this data, slowing progress in reproducible research. State of the art methods fo…
Labyrinth fractals are dendrites in the unit square. They were introduced and studied in the last decade first in the self-similar case [Cristea & Steinsky (2009,2011)], then in the mixed case [Cristea & Steinsky (2017), Cristea & Leobacher (2017)]. Supermixed fractals constitute a significant generalisation of mixed l…
Inspired by biophysical principles underlying nonlinear dendritic computation in neural circuits, we develop a scheme to train deep neural networks to make them robust to adversarial attacks. Our scheme generates highly nonlinear, saturated neural networks that achieve state of the art performance on gradient based adv…
Neural networks learn to mimic brain neurons with two-input activation functions, improving performance and robustness.
T2FSNN improves deep SNNs by reducing spikes and latency.
Biological neural network mimics CCA for multi-channel data.
Calcium imaging permits optical measurement of neural activity. Since intracellular calcium concentration is an indirect measurement of neural activity, computational tools are necessary to infer the true underlying spiking activity from fluorescence measurements. Bayesian model inversion can be used to solve this prob…
