Growing dendrites enhance a neuron's computational power and memory capacity
William B Levy, Robert A. Baxter
Neocortical pyramidal neurons have many dendrites, and such dendrites are capable of, in isolation of one-another, generating a neuronal spike. It is also now understood that there…
Cerebral cortical communication overshadows computational energy-use, but these combine to predict synapse number
William B Levy, Victoria G. Calvert
Darwinian evolution tends to produce energy-efficient outcomes. On the other hand, energy limits computation, be it neural and probabilistic or digital and logical. Taking a partic…
Complexity Leads to Simplicity: A Consensus Layer V Pyramidal Neuron Can Sustain Interpulse-Interval Coding
Chandan Singh, William B. Levy
In terms of the long-distance communication of a single neuron, interpulse intervals (IPIs) are a possible alternative to rate and binary codes. As a proxy for IPI, the time-to-spi…
Neural computation from first principles: Using the maximum entropy method to obtain an optimal bits-per-joule neuron
William B Levy, Toby Berger, Mustafa Sungkar
Optimization results are one method for understanding neural computation from Nature's perspective and for defining the physical limits on neuron-like engineering. Earlier work loo…
