"Neural Oscillators and the Brain"
Jose Acacio de Barros
Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Brazil.
Neurons in the brain often fire synchronously, creating neural
oscillators. Because these oscillators are weakly coupled, they may
synchronize. I will discuss weakly coupled oscillators and their use
to model learning. Our learning models are based on assumptions
supported by neurophysiological evidence. We then compare the
learning behavior of the neural oscillator model to psychological
experimental results.
