In Julian’s new paper “Dis-inhibitory neuronal circuits can control the sign of synaptic plasticity“ accepted at NeurIPS we look at how to reconcile normative theories of gradient-based learning in the brain with phenomenological models ofContinue reading

New preprint: Improving equilibrium propagation without weight symmetry
I am happy to announce our new preprint on “Improving equilibrium propagation (EP) without weight symmetry through Jacobian homeostasis,” led by Axel. https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.02214 EP prescribes a local learning rule and uses recurrent dynamics for creditContinue reading
Paper: Burst-dependent synaptic plasticity can coordinate learning in hierarchical circuits
We’re excited to see this published. A new take on spatial credit assignment in cortical circuits based on Richard Naud’s idea on burst multiplexing. A truly collaborative effort lead by Alexandre Payeur and Jordan GuerguievContinue reading
