arXiv:2609. 04549v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) system serves as a simplified model of neuronal voltage dynamics, capturing the activator-inhibitor structure behind both isolated action potentials and the rhythmic spiking seen across the brain.

arXiv:2608. 03927v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Engineered Skeletal Muscle Tissues (ESMs) have become a key structure for biomedical disease modeling and pharmacological screening, yet their functional characterization often relies on simplistic metrics like peak force, discarding critical kinetic information.

The paper presents a discrete generative model for neuronal spiking activity recorded on microelectrode arrays. It uses a shared vocabulary of spatiotemporal motifs learned by a residual vector‑quantized autoencoder and predicts motif occurrence with a factorized masked transformer. Evaluated on 31 assays from human brain organoids and ex vivo hippocampal tissue, the model achieves superior reconstruction and generation performance compared to baselines and shows that motifs are largely reused across assays.

SpikeMoE introduces a spike-based k‑WTA router that uses lateral inhibition and refractory periods to select the top‑K experts based on discrete spike counts, inspired by hippocampal CA1 competition. The framework combines spiking neural network dynamics with mixture‑of‑experts conditional computation and adds a two‑stage missing‑modality module for robust multimodal processing. Experiments on vision, language, and multimodal tasks show that SpikeMoE matches or surpasses ANN baselines while offering energy‑efficient performance.

arXiv:2607. 15180v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are widely used to model dynamical systems in physics, biology, neuroscience, and physiology, but in many applications some equations of the dynamics are unknown and only a subset of the state variables are measured.
