Mistake gating leads to energy and memory efficient continual learning
Aaron Pache, Mark CW van Rossum
Synaptic plasticity is metabolically expensive, yet animals continuously update their internal models without exhausting energy reserves. However, when artificial neural networks a…
Competitive plasticity to reduce the energetic costs of learning
Mark CW van Rossum
The brain is not only constrained by energy needed to fuel computation, but it is also constrained by energy needed to form memories. Experiments have shown that learning simple co…
Lazy learning: a biologically-inspired plasticity rule for fast and energy efficient synaptic plasticity
Aaron Pache, Mark CW van Rossum
When training neural networks for classification tasks with backpropagation, parameters are updated on every trial, even if the sample is classified correctly. In contrast, humans…
Estimating the energy requirements for long term memory formation
Maxime Girard, Jiamu Jiang, Mark CW van Rossum
Brains consume metabolic energy to process information, but also to store memories. The energy required for memory formation can be substantial, for instance in fruit flies memory…
Multiple scattering of classical waves: from microscopy to mesoscopy and diffusion
M. C. W. van Rossum, Th. M. Nieuwenhuizen
A tutorial discussion of the propagation of waves in random media is presented. In first approximation the transport of the multiple scattered waves is given by diffusion theory, b…
Deviations from the Gaussian distribution of mesoscopic conductance fluctuations
M. C. W. van Rossum, Igor V. Lerner, Boris L. Altshuler +1
The conductance distribution of metallic mesoscopic systems is considered. The variance of this distribution describes the universal conductance fluctuations, yielding a Gaussian d…
Third Cumulant of the total Transmission of diffuse Waves
M. C. W. van Rossum, Johannes F. de Boer, Th. M. Nieuwenhuizen
The probability distribution of the total transmission is studied for waves multiple scattered from a random, static configuration of scatterers. A theoretical study of the second…
"Optical conductance fluctuations: diagrammatic analysis in Landauer approach and non-universal effects"
M. C. W. van Rossum, Th. M. Nieuwenhuizen, R. Vlaming
The optical conductance of a multiple scattering medium is the total transmitted light of a diffuse incoming beam. This quantity, very analogous to the electronic conductance, exhi…
