Resource-Efficient Continual Learning for Personalized Online Seizure Detection

David Atienza Alonso, Giovanni Ansaloni, Flavio Ponzina, José Angel Miranda Calero, Jonathan Dan, Amirhossein Shahbazinia

Epilepsy, a major neurological disease, requires careful diagnosis and treatment. However, the detection of epileptic seizures remains a significant challenge. Current clinical practice relies on expert analysis of EEG signals, a process that is time-consu ...

Fast adaptation to rule switching using neuronal surprise

Wulfram Gerstner, Martin Louis Lucien Rémy Barry

In humans and animals, surprise is a physiological reaction to an unexpected event, but how surprise can be linked to plausible models of neuronal activity is an open problem. We propose a self-supervised spiking neural network model where a surprise signa ...

Customizing the human-avatar mapping based on EEG error related potentials during avatar-based interaction

Olaf Blanke, José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Ronan Boulic, Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano, Bruno Herbelin, Fumiaki Iwane, Thibault Serge Mario Porssut

Objective. A key challenge of virtual reality (VR) applications is to maintain a reliable human-avatar mapping. Users may lose the sense of controlling (sense of agency), owning (sense of body ownership), or being located (sense of self-location) inside th ...

Left cardiac vagotomy rapidly reduces contralateral cardiac vagal electrical activity in anesthetized Gottingen minipigs

Silvestro Micera, Ivo Strauss

Background: The impact of acute unilateral injury on spontaneous electrical activity in both vagus nerves at the heart level is poorly understood. We investigated the immediate neuroelectrical response after right or left cardiac vagal nerve transection (V ...

On a Finite-Size Neuronal Population Equation

Tilo Schwalger, Valentin Marc Schmutz

Population equations for infinitely large networks of spiking neurons have a long tradition in theoret-ical neuroscience. In this work, we analyze a recent generalization of these equations to populations of finite size, which takes the form of a nonlinear ...

Do we really measure what we think we are measuring?

Michael Herzog, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Simona Adele Garobbio, Dario Alejandro Gordillo Lopez

Tests used in the empirical sciences are often (implicitly) assumed to be representative of a given research question in the sense that similar tests should lead to similar results. Here, we show that this assumption is not always valid. We illustrate our ...

Recent Developments on the Use of Nanomaterials for the Treatment of Epilepsy

Sandrine Gerber

Epilepsy affects more than 40 million people worldwide, constituting one of the most debilitating disorders of the Central Nervous System (CNS). It results from an imbalance in the electrical activity of neurons, which is primarily mediated by calcium ions ...

Disruption of layer-specific visual processing in a model of focal neocortical epilepsy

Silvestro Micera

The epileptic brain is the result of a sequence of events transforming normal neuronal populations into hyperexcitable networks supporting recurrent seizure generation. These modifications are known to induce fundamental alterations of circuit function and ...

Learning-related congruent and incongruent changes of excitation and inhibition in distinct cortical areas

Carl Petersen, Sylvain Crochet, Romain Guiet, Georgios Foustoukos, Vahid Esmaeili, Yanqi Liu, Keita Tamura, Anastasiia Oryshchuk

Excitatory and inhibitory neurons in diverse cortical regions are likely to contribute differentially to the transformation of sensory information into goal-directed motor plans. Here, we investigate the relative changes across mouse sensorimotor cortex in ...

Taming neuronal noise with large networks

Valentin Marc Schmutz

How does reliable computation emerge from networks of noisy neurons? While individual neurons are intrinsically noisy, the collective dynamics of populations of neurons taken as a whole can be almost deterministic, supporting the hypothesis that, in the br ...

Personalized seizure signature: An interpretable approach to false alarm reduction for long‐term epileptic seizure detection

David Atienza Alonso, Amir Aminifar, Tomas Teijeiro Campo, Dionisije Sopic

Objective Long-term automatic detection of focal seizures remains one of the major challenges in epilepsy due to the unacceptably high number of false alarms from state-of-the-art methods. Our aim was to investigate to what extent a new patient-specific ap ...

A guideline for linking brain wave findings to the various aspects of discrete perception

Michael Herzog, Lukas Vogelsang, Maëlan Quentin Menétrey

Brain waves, determined by electrical and magnetic brain recordings (e.g., EEG and MEG), and fluctuating behavioral responses, determined by response time or accuracy measures, are frequently taken to support discrete perception. For example, it has been p ...

Feed-forward and noise-tolerant detection of feature homogeneity in spiking networks with a latency code

Marc-Oliver Gewaltig

In studies of the visual system as well as in computer vision, the focus is often on contrast edges. However, the primate visual system contains a large number of cells that are insensitive to spatial contrast and, instead, respond to uniform homogeneous i ...

Signal-to-signal neural networks for improved spike estimation from calcium imaging data

Mathew Magimai Doss

Information processing by a population of neurons is studied using two-photon calcium imaging techniques. A neuronal spike results in an increased intracellular calcium concentration. Fluorescent calcium indicators change their brightness upon a change in ...
