Spiking Neuron Models: Single Neurons, Populations, Plasticity "All you ever wanted to know about spiking neuron models" according to Orlando Furioso. I have used this book as an introduction and reference book for modeling neurons since I started my thesis work in computational neuroscience two years ago. It covers various types of spiking neuron models (e.g. Hodgkin-Huxley, Morris-Lecar, Integrate&Fire, Spike-Response-Model), noise in neuron models, population models, and plasticity/learning.It is a very useful book, clearly written and comprehensive, pro

It focuses on phenomenological approaches rather than detailed models in order to provide the reader with a conceptual framework. No prior knowledge beyond undergraduate mathematics is required.. This introduction to spiking neurons can be used in advanced-level courses in computational neuroscience, theoretical biology, neural modeling, biophysics, or neural networks. The authors formulate the theoretical concepts clearly without many mathematical details. While the book contains standard material for courses in computational neuroscience, neural modeling, or neural networks, it also provides an entry to current research

"All you ever wanted to know about spiking neuron models" according to Orlando Furioso. I have used this book as an introduction and reference book for modeling neurons since I started my thesis work in computational neuroscience two years ago. It covers various types of spiking neuron models (e.g. Hodgkin-Huxley, Morris-Lecar, Integrate&Fire, Spike-Response-Model), noise in neuron models, population models, and plasticity/learning.It is a very useful book, clearly written and comprehensive, providing sufficient detail and background information. Derivations of the equations are clearly presented and understandable to anyone with a decent knowledge of mathematics. A degree in physics is not required . "Impressive book" according to Harel Z. Shouval. This is a very impressive book. It covers in a systematic manner a broad portion of the field of theoretical neuroscience. It covers topics from models of single spiking neurons, through networks of interconnected neurons and up to neuronal plasticity. This book is also written very well. The style of this book reflects the background of the authors as Physicists; it therefore strives for simplicity wherever possible. I used chapters from this book as a basis for some of my lectures in a course I teach: Introduction to Theoretical/Computational Neuroscience, a graduate level course. I especially liked the systemat
