A hemicord locomotor network of excitatory interneurons: a simulation study

Locomotor burst generation is simulated using a full-scale network model of the unilateral excitatory interneuronal population. Earlier small-scale models predicted that a population of excitatory neurons would be sufficient to produce burst activity, ...
Particle Swarm Optimization Simulation via Optimal Halton Sequences

Inspired by the social behavior of the bird flocking or fish schooling, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a population based stochastic optimization method developed by Eberhart and Kennedy in 1995. It has been used across a wide range of ...
