Two-compartment neuronal spiking model expressing brain-state specific apical-amplification, -isolation and -drive regimes

no code implementations10 Nov 2023 Elena Pastorelli, Alper Yegenoglu, Nicole Kolodziej, Willem Wybo, Francesco Simula, Sandra Diaz, Johan Frederik Storm, Pier Stanislao Paolucci

Mounting experimental evidence suggests that brain-state-specific neural mechanisms, supported by connectomic architectures, play a crucial role in integrating past and contextual knowledge with the current, incoming flow of evidence (e. g., from sensory systems).

Runtime Construction of Large-Scale Spiking Neuronal Network Models on GPU Devices

no code implementations16 Jun 2023 Bruno Golosio, Jose Villamar, Gianmarco Tiddia, Elena Pastorelli, Jonas Stapmanns, Viviana Fanti, Pier Stanislao Paolucci, Abigail Morrison, Johanna Senk

Simulation speed matters for neuroscientific research: this includes not only how quickly the simulated model time of a large-scale spiking neuronal network progresses, but also how long it takes to instantiate the network model in computer memory.

Simulations Approaching Data: Cortical Slow Waves in Inferred Models of the Whole Hemisphere of Mouse

2 code implementations15 Apr 2021 Cristiano Capone, Chiara De Luca, Giulia De Bonis, Robin Gutzen, Irene Bernava, Elena Pastorelli, Francesco Simula, Cosimo Lupo, Leonardo Tonielli, Anna Letizia Allegra Mascaro, Francesco Resta, Francesco Pavone, Micheal Denker, Pier Stanislao Paolucci

The model is capable to reproduce most of the features of the non-stationary and non-linear dynamics displayed by the high-resolution recording of the in-vivo mouse brain obtained by wide-field calcium imaging techniques.

Fast simulations of highly-connected spiking cortical models using GPUs

no code implementations28 Jul 2020 Bruno Golosio, Gianmarco Tiddia, Chiara De Luca, Elena Pastorelli, Francesco Simula, Pier Stanislao Paolucci

In this work we evaluate the performance of this library on the simulation of a cortical microcircuit model, based on LIF neurons and current-based synapses, and on a balanced network of excitatory and inhibitory neurons, using AdEx neurons and conductance-based synapses.

Thalamo-cortical spiking model of incremental learning combining perception, context and NREM-sleep-mediated noise-resilience

no code implementations26 Mar 2020 Bruno Golosio, Chiara De Luca, Cristiano Capone, Elena Pastorelli, Giovanni Stegel, Gianmarco Tiddia, Giulia De Bonis, Pier Stanislao Paolucci

The brain exhibits capabilities of fast incremental learning from few noisy examples, as well as the ability to associate similar memories in autonomously-created categories and to combine contextual hints with sensory perceptions.

Scaling of a large-scale simulation of synchronous slow-wave and asynchronous awake-like activity of a cortical model with long-range interconnections

no code implementations22 Feb 2019 Elena Pastorelli, Cristiano Capone, Francesco Simula, Maria V. Sanchez-Vives, Paolo del Giudice, Maurizio Mattia, Pier Stanislao Paolucci

Cortical synapse organization supports a range of dynamic states on multiple spatial and temporal scales, from synchronous slow wave activity (SWA), characteristic of deep sleep or anesthesia, to fluctuating, asynchronous activity during wakefulness (AW).

Gaussian and exponential lateral connectivity on distributed spiking neural network simulation

no code implementations23 Mar 2018 Elena Pastorelli, Pier Stanislao Paolucci, Francesco Simula, Andrea Biagioni, Fabrizio Capuani, Paolo Cretaro, Giulia De Bonis, Francesca Lo Cicero, Alessandro Lonardo, Michele Martinelli, Luca Pontisso, Piero Vicini, Roberto Ammendola

We measured the impact of long-range exponentially decaying intra-areal lateral connectivity on the scaling and memory occupation of a distributed spiking neural network simulator compared to that of short-range Gaussian decays.
