Dynamics of neural networks
-
This is a past event
School Seminar (NCS)
Talk outline
The general properties of neural dynamics will be reviewed with special attention devoted to the spontaneous emergence of collective behaviour. The role of several ‘ingredients’ will be discussed: delay in the interactions, disorder (in the connections and in the neuron parameters), and synaptic variability. Analogies and differences with other typical setups of coupled oscillators will also be illustrated.
