Self-organization toward criticality by synaptic plasticity
Self-organized criticality has been proposed to be a universal mechanism for the emergence
of scale-free dynamics in many complex systems, and possibly in the brain. While such …

[HTML][HTML] Cortical circuit dynamics are homeostatically tuned to criticality in vivo
Homeostatic mechanisms stabilize neuronal activity in vivo, but whether this process gives
rise to balanced network dynamics is unknown. Here, we continuously monitored the …

Sleep promotes downward firing rate homeostasis
Homeostatic plasticity is hypothesized to bidirectionally regulate neuronal activity around a
stable set point to compensate for learning-related plasticity, but to date only upward firing …

Synaptic plasticity in neural networks needs homeostasis with a fast rate detector
Hebbian changes of excitatory synapses are driven by and further enhance correlations
between pre-and postsynaptic activities. Hence, Hebbian plasticity forms a positive feedback …
