Integrating Neural Interfaces with Machine Learning: Enabling Self-Sufficient and Ubiquitous Prosthetic and Diagnostic Devices

Mahsa Shoaran, Mohammad Ali Shaeri, Jinhan Liu

Advanced neural interfaces are transforming applications ranging from neuroscience research to diagnostic tools (for mental state recognition, tremor and seizure detection) as well as prosthetic devices (for motor and communication recovery). By integratin ...

Development of End-to-End Artificial Intelligence Models for Surgical Planning in Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion

Minh Hieu Lê

Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) is a commonly used technique for treating lumbar degenerative diseases. In this study, we developed a fully computer-supported pipeline to predict both the cage height and the degree of lumbar lordosis subtract ...

Learning what matters: Synaptic plasticity with invariance to second-order input correlations

Wulfram Gerstner, Carlos Stein Naves de Brito

Cortical populations of neurons develop sparse representations adapted to the statistics of the environment. To learn efficient population codes, synaptic plasticity mechanisms must differentiate relevant latent features from spurious input correlations, w ...

Early motor skill acquisition in healthy older adults: functional MRI and connectome correlates

Manon Chloé Durand-Ruel

decrement have been proposed, such as weakened acquisition of the motor skill. While the processes at play during the initial acquisition phase have been well-characterized in young adults, they were only scarcely investigated in older adults. The goal of ...

Using genetic algorithms to systematically improve the synthesis conditions of Al-PMOF

Fatmah Ebrahim, Seyedmohamad Moosavi, Berend Smit, Nency Patricio Domingues, Christopher Patrick Ireland, Christoph Leopold Talirz, Kevin Maik Jablonka

The synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is often complex and the desired structure is not always obtained. In this work, we report a methodology that uses a joint machine learning and experimental approach to optimize the synthesis conditions of A ...

Risk prediction error signaling: A two-component response?

Michael Herzog, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Kerstin Preuschoff, Marc Michael Lauffs

Organisms use rewards to navigate and adapt to (uncertain) environments. Error-based learning about rewards issupported by the dopaminergic system, which is thought to signal reward prediction errors to make adjustmentsto past predictions. More recently, t ...

Robust Distributed Learning

El Mahdi El Mhamdi

Whether it occurs in artificial or biological substrates, {\it learning} is a {distributed} phenomenon in at least two aspects. First, meaningful data and experiences are rarely found in one location, hence {\it learners} have a strong incentive to work t ...

Deep learning-based BCI for gait decoding from EEG with LSTM recurrent neural network

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

Objective.Mobile Brain/Body Imaging (MoBI) frameworks allowed the research community to find evidence of cortical involvement at walking initiation and during locomotion. However, the decoding of gait patterns from brain signals remains an open challenge. ...

A 4.8pJ/b 6Gb/s ADC-Based PAM-4 Wireline Receiver Data -Path with Cyclic Prefix in 14nm FinFET

Yusuf Leblebici, Alessandro Cevrero, Andreas Peter Burg, Gain Kim, Lukas Kull, Thomas Toifl, Cosimo Aprile, Ilter Ozkaya

This work presents an ADC-bascd receiver (RX) data-path for frame-based PAM-4 modulation with a cyclic prefix (CP). Similar to discrete multi-tone (DMT) modulation, a frame of PAM-4 symbols arc protected from the channel delay spread by the CP taps. A PAM- ...

The unfolding argument: Why IIT and other causal structure theories cannot explain consciousness

Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Michael Herzog, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Aaron Schurger

How can we explain consciousness? This question has become a vibrant topic of neuroscience research in recent decades. A large body of empirical results has been accumulated, and many theories have been proposed. Certain theories suggest that consciousness ...
