8 results about "Lateral inhibition" patented technology

In neurobiology, lateral inhibition is the capacity of an excited neuron to reduce the activity of its neighbors. Lateral inhibition disables the spreading of action potentials from excited neurons to neighboring neurons in the lateral direction. This creates a contrast in stimulation that allows increased sensory perception. It is also referred to as lateral antagonism and occurs primarily in visual processes, but also in tactile, auditory, and even olfactory processing. Cells that utilize lateral inhibition appear primarily in the cerebral cortex and thalamus and make up lateral inhibitory networks (LINs). Artificial lateral inhibition has been incorporated into artificial sensory systems, such as vision chips, hearing systems, and optical mice. An often under-appreciated point is that although lateral inhibition is visualised in a spatial sense, it is also thought to exist in what is known as "lateral inhibition across abstract dimensions." This refers to lateral inhibition between neurons that are not adjacent in a spatial sense, but in terms of modality of stimulus. This phenomenon is thought to aid in colour discrimination.

Molecular property prediction method based on spectral position encoding and biomimetic lateral inhibition gating

The application discloses a molecular property prediction method based on spectral position coding and bionic side inhibition gating, and relates to the field of olfactory perception. The method comprises the following steps: constructing a molecular structured input comprising atomic types, a Coulomb matrix and graph Laplacian eigenvector; fusing atomic chemical attributes and spectral domain topological positions through a feature extraction module to generate initial atomic features; using a multi-scale aggregation module, hierarchical neighborhood aggregation is carried out based on preset scale constraints to extract multi-level structure features covering chemical bonds, functional groups and molecular skeletons; with the help of a global interaction module of bionic side inhibition gating, local features are dynamically modulated by a global query signal to realize adaptive denoising and semantic sharpening; finally, through mask pooling and a decoupled multi-label prediction head, the scores of each odor attribute of the molecule are output. The application significantly improves the accuracy, structure perception ability and cross-task generalization performance of molecular property prediction.

ActiveCN115830051BImage enhancementImage analysisLateral inhibitionRadiology
This invention provides a visual biomimetic edge detection method based on texture gradient modulation, belonging to the field of image edge detection technology. It focuses on introducing texture gradients to detect significant edges and suppress texture. First, the retina is modeled, and the image is encoded to obtain multiple information channels. Based on this, a novel peripheral modulation mechanism is designed, including unidirectional facilitation, lateral inhibition, and omnidirectional inhibition, to modulate the responses of simple cells in the primary visual cortex. Simultaneously, texture gradients are extracted using texture information and combined with the responses of simple cells to highlight the boundaries of textured regions and weaken the responses at textured edges. Next, endpoint cells in the second-level visual cortex are modeled to further modulate edge responses. Finally, the fourth-level visual cortex is modeled to integrate edge cues from all information channels to obtain the final edge detection result. This invention solves the problems of poorly highlighted textured region boundaries and significant noise in existing edge detection methods.
