Research Abstract |
In this study, a neuron model that is described by an asynchronous cellular automaton having discrete state and continuous transient time is proposed. Also, a learning algorithm for the model to reproduce nonlinear dynamics of a biological neuron automatically in an FPGA is proposed. Furthermore, a network of the model is presented and its various spatio-temporal phenomena are analyzed both analytically and numerically. Then, possibilities of applications of these results to neural prosthesis are explored.
