Modeling Inhibitory and Excitatory Synapse Learning in the Memristive Neuron Model

摘要

In this paper we present the results of simulation of exitatory Hebbian and inhibitory "sombrero" learning of a hardware architecture based on organic memristive elements and operational amplifiers implementing an artificial neuron we recently proposed. This is a first step towards the deployment on robots of a bioplausible simulation, currently developed in the neuro-biologically inspired cognitive architecture (NeuCogAr) implementing basic emotional states or affects in a computational system, in the context of our "Robot dream" project. The long term goal is to re-implement dopamine, serotonin and noradrenaline pathways of NeuCogAr in a memristive hardware.
