How much does irrelevant information in an image affect the learning process of CNN?

I have a CNN for Alzheimer detection on MRI data. The MRI's are 3D 1.5T scans and the skull is very visible (a premade dataset from ADNI1 year 3). I've been trying to adapt skull stripping but haven't succeeded so decided to run my model without…

How to map "boolean spike result" to "floating point input current value" in spiking neural network?

My question is about spiking neural networks. Input of a typical spiking neuron is usually some floating point value, representing its inflow current, typically expressed in mA or similar units, like in a following simple example: static const…

Measure spike correlation over time for different neurons

I´m trying to find a global measure of similarity for spikes trains over time. The signals look like in the picture (in this example I have 17 neurons). Can I use windowed cross correlations? If yes, what should I do with the output matrices? I use…

Is there a way to implement a full Python (psychopy) procedure into neurobs Presentation without rewriting the whole code?

I found an option to get python to play Presentation procedures, but not the other way around. I have a ton of code and rewriting it into a different language would be a nightmare.
