This update is dependent on the membrane potential of the presynaptic neuron, which is readily available as part of neuron implementation and hence does not require additional memory for storage.

While it is known that those embeddings are able to learn some structures of language (e. g. grammar) in a purely data-driven manner, there is very little work on the objective evaluation of their ability to cover the whole language space and to generalize to sentences outside the language bias of the training data.

The use of electroencephalogram (EEG) as the main input signal in brain-machine interfaces has been widely proposed due to the non-invasive nature of the EEG.
