Resource depletion accelerates rate learning but not composition learning in patch foraging
Zachary P. Kilpatrick, Ahmed El Hady
Foraging is a universal animal behavior that has increasingly attracted the interest of both experimentalists and theorists. Most prior models assume an animal knows the distributi…
Astrocytic resource diffusion stabilizes persistent activity in neural fields
Noah Palmer, Heather L. Cihak, Daniele Avitabile +1
Persistent neural activity underlying working memory requires sustained synaptic transmission, yet the metabolic and neurotransmitter support provided by astrocyte networks is larg…
Stroboscopic motion reversals in delay-coupled neural fields
Noah Parks, Zachary P Kilpatrick
Visual illusions provide a window into the mechanisms underlying visual processing, and dynamical neural circuit models offer a natural framework for proposing and testing theories…
Robustly encoding certainty in a metastable neural circuit model
Heather L Cihak, Zachary P Kilpatrick
Localized persistent neural activity can encode delayed estimates of continuous variables. Common experiments require that subjects store and report the feature value (e.g., orient…
Representing stimulus motion with waves in adaptive neural fields
Sage Shaw, Zachary P Kilpatrick
Traveling waves of neural activity emerge in cortical networks both spontaneously and in response to stimuli. The spatiotemporal structure of waves can indicate the information the…
Multiscale motion and deformation of bumps in stochastic neural fields with dynamic connectivity
Heather L Cihak, Zachary P Kilpatrick
The distinct timescales of synaptic plasticity and neural activity dynamics play an important role in the brain's learning and memory systems. Activity-dependent plasticity reshape…
