Adaptive Chemotaxis for improved Contour Tracking using Spiking Neural Networks
Shashwat Shukla, Rohan Pathak, Vivek Saraswat +1
In this paper we present a Spiking Neural Network (SNN) for autonomous navigation, inspired by the chemotaxis network of the worm Caenorhabditis elegans. In particular, we focus on…

Structured Mean-field Variational Inference and Learning in Winner-take-all Spiking Neural Networks
Shashwat Shukla, Hideaki Shimazaki, Udayan Ganguly
The Bayesian view of the brain hypothesizes that the brain constructs a generative model of the world, and uses it to make inferences via Bayes' rule. Although many types of approx…
