Spike-Timing-Dependent Plasticity for Bernoulli Message Passing
Sepideh Adamiat, Wouter M. Kouw, Bert de Vries
Bayesian inference provides a principled framework for understanding brain function, while neural activity in the brain is inherently spike-based. This paper bridges these two pers…

A Spiking Neural Network Implementation of Gaussian Belief Propagation
Sepideh Adamiat, Wouter M. Kouw, Bert de Vries
Bayesian inference offers a principled account of information processing in natural agents. However, it remains an open question how neural mechanisms perform their abstract operat…

Expected Free Energy-based Planning as Variational Inference
Bert de Vries, Wouter Nuijten, Thijs van de Laar +13
We address the problem of planning under uncertainty, where an agent must choose actions that not only achieve desired outcomes but also reduce uncertainty. Traditional methods oft…
