How to Color a French Flag--Biologically Inspired Algorithms for Scale-Invariant Patterning
Alberto Ancona, Ayesha Bajwa, Nancy Lynch +1
In the French flag problem, initially uncolored cells on a grid must differentiate to become blue, white or red. The goal is for the cells to color the grid as a French flag, i.e.,…
Winner-Take-All Computation in Spiking Neural Networks
Nancy Lynch, Cameron Musco, Merav Parter
In this work we study biological neural networks from an algorithmic perspective, focusing on understanding tradeoffs between computation time and network complexity. Our goal is t…
Spike-Based Winner-Take-All Computation: Fundamental Limits and Order-Optimal Circuits
Lili Su, Chia-Jung Chang, Nancy Lynch
Winner-Take-All (WTA) refers to the neural operation that selects a (typically small) group of neurons from a large neuron pool. It is conjectured to underlie many of the brain's f…
Integrating Temporal Information to Spatial Information in a Neural Circuit
Nancy Lynch, Mien Brabeeba Wang
In this paper, we consider networks of deterministic spiking neurons, firing synchronously at discrete times; such spiking neural networks are inspired by networks of neurons and s…
