Abstract

We investigate the use of Spike Time Dependent Plasticity (STDP) in a network of Nonlinear Dynamic State (NDS) Neurons. We find out that NDS Neurons can implement a form of STDP; a biological phenomenon that neocortical neurons own, and would preserve their temporal asymmetric windows of firing activity, while stabilizing to Unstable Periodic Orbits, called UPOs, considered as their neural states. Such correlation and ease of integration by using STDP within NDS neurons show that those NDS neurons can truly implement biological realism through their dynamics as it was early speculated in their invention in 2005.
