Humanized substitutions of Vmat1 in mice alter amygdala-dependent behaviors associated with the evolution of anxiety

Summary: The human vesicular monoamine transporter 1 (VMAT1) harbors unique substitutions (Asn136Thr/Ile) that affect monoamine uptake into synaptic vesicles. These substitutions are absent in all known mammals, suggesting their contributio...

On the character of consciousness

The human brain is a particularly demanding system to infer its nature from observations. Thus, there is on one hand plenty of room for theorizing and on the other hand a pressing need for a rigorous theory. We apply statistical mechanics o...

How structure determines correlations in neuronal networks.

Networks are becoming a ubiquitous metaphor for the understanding of complex biological systems, spanning the range between molecular signalling pathways, neural networks in the brain, and interacting species in a food web. In many models, ...

A role for neural modeling in the study of brain disorders: Comment on From intracerebral EEG signals to brain connectivity: identification of epileptogenic networks in partial epilepsy by F. Wendling et al.

Artificial Neural Networks in Hydrology

The Handbook of brain theory and neural networks

From the Publisher: Dramatically updating and extending the first edition, published in 1995, the second edition of The Handbook of Brain Theory and Neural Networks presents the enormous progress made in recent years in the many subfields ...

Models of Neural Networks

An Introduction to Neural Networks

Though mathematical ideas underpin the study of neural networks, the author presents the fundamentals without the full mathematical apparatus. All aspects of the field are tackled, including artificial neurons as models of their real counte...

Research on Kalman Filter Fusion Navigation Algorithm Assisted by CNN-LSTM Neural Network

In response to the challenge of single navigation methods failing to meet the high precision requirements for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) navigation in complex environments, a novel algorithm that integrates Global Navigation Satellite Sy...

Invariant representation of physical stability in the human brain

Successful engagement with the world requires the ability to predict what will happen next. Here, we investigate how the brain makes a fundamental prediction about the physical world: whether the situation in front of us is stable, and henc...

Shear banding and flow instabilities in wormlike micelles: Modelling and mechanisms – A review

Worm-like micelles (WLMs) are dynamic, self-assembling supramolecular structures that exhibit complex viscoelastic behaviour due to their ability to undergo reversible scission, fusion, branching, and sequence rearrangement. This review pro...

Neural Networks: Tricks of the Trade

Neural Networks in Materials Science.

There are difficult problems in materials science where the general concepts might be understood but which are not as yet amenable to scientific treatment. We are at the same time told that good engineering has the responsibility to reach o...

Elements of Artificial Neural Networks

Elements of Artificial Neural Networks provides a clearly organized general introduction, focusing on a broad range of algorithms, for students and others who want to use neural networks rather than simply study them. The authors, who have ...

Predictive model for 5-year mortality after breast cancer surgery in Taiwan residents

Abstract Background Few studies of breast cancer surgery outcomes have used longitudinal data for more than 2 years. This study aimed to validate the use of the artificial neural network (ANN) model to predict the 5-year mortality of breast...

A Complex Network Epidemiological Approach for Infectious Disease Spread Control with Time-Varying Connections

This work introduces an impulsive neural control algorithm designed to mitigate the spread of epidemic diseases. The objective of this paper is the development of a vaccination strategy based on a PIN-type impulsive controller based on an o...

Neural Networks and Brain Function

The aim of this book is to describe the types of computation that can be performed by biologically plausible neural networks, and to show how these may be implemented in different systems in the brain. The book is structured in three sectio...

Connectomic insights into the impact of 1p/19q co-deletion in dominant hemisphere insular glioma patients

ObjectivesThis study aimed to elucidate the influences of 1p/19q co-deletion on structural connectivity alterations in patients with dominant hemisphere insular diffuse gliomas.MethodsWe incorporated 32 cases of left insular gliomas and 20 ...

Tailoring Mission Effectiveness and Efficiency of a Ground Vehicle Using Exergy-Based Model Predictive Control (MPC)

To ensure dominance over a multi-domain battlespace, energy and power utilization must be accurately characterized for the dissimilar operational conditions. Using MATLAB/Simulink in combination with multiple neural networks, we created a m...
