UC Merced Proceedings of the Annual Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society Title A General Purpose Architecture for Building Spiking Neuron Models of Biological Cognition Permalink
2013
Proceedings of the Annual Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society
unpublished
This system is a general-purpose, biologically constrained, and neurally plausible cognitive architecture implemented using spiking neurons, and is the core foundation of our large-scale brain simulation ...
By combining these models with a general method for cognitive control (the cortex-basal ganglia-thalamus loop), we have created the beginnings of a novel biologically realistic cognitive architecture. ...

Large-Scale Synthesis of Functional Spiking Neural Circuits
2014
Proceedings of the IEEE
This paper reviews a system capable of performing multiple cognitive functions using a combination of biologically plausible spiking neurons, and an architecture that mimics the organization, function, ...
The resulting NEF/SPA/Nengo combination is a general tool set for both evaluating hypotheses about how the brain works, and for building systems that compute particular functions using neuron-like components ...
The NEF thus provides a generic framework for implementing a very large class of functions in networks of biologically plausible spiking neurons. ...

The 2013 International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (IJCNN)
Although designed with cognitive algorithms and applications in mind, serendipitously, the neuron model can qualitatively replicate the 20 biologically-relevant behaviors of a dynamical neuron model. ...
The model supports a wide variety of computational functions and neural codes. We capture 50+ neuron behaviors in a library for hierarchical composition of complex computations and behaviors. ...
We would like to thank David Peyton for his expert assistance revising this manuscript. ...

The use and abuse of large-scale brain models
2014
Current Opinion in Neurobiology
In addition to discussing challenges involved with building large neural models, we identify several expected benefits of pursuing such a research program. ...
The second is that models, and more importantly their underlying methods, should provide mechanisms for varying the level of simulated detail. ...
But, is making such a connection really the purpose of such models? And, if so, what does that mean for the role of biological realism? Why build large-scale brain models? ...
