Dynamics of cortical dendritic membrane potential and spikes in freely behaving rats
Neural activity in vivo is primarily measured using extracellular somatic spikes, which provide limited information about neural computation. Hence, it is necessary to record from neuronal dendrites, which generate dendritic action potentials (DAP) and profoundly…

CQ CQ CQ - Calling CQ. This is 5G calling... We’ve all heard it. 5G is coming. Maybe not soon, but as soon as we can get all those pesky technical issues worked out. Which pesky technical issues would those be? Glad you asked. It turns out that cramming a…
Beyond IEEE754 Floating Point: Next Generation Computer Arithmetic
A new data type
- Simpler hardware implementation from 2 to thousands of bits.
- Larger dynamic range, higher accuracy, better closure under arithmetic operations, and simpler exception-handling
- Unlike unum arithmetic, posits do not require interval-type mathematics or variable size operands, and they round if an answer is inexact, much the way floats do.
