This paper introduces a reinforcement learning agent that exhibits signal neutrality, scalar property, and collapsing boundaries, suggesting these are emergent properties of multi-timescale information processing in decision-making.

The paper shows that compensatory variability in Kenyon cell parameters improves memory performance in Drosophila mushroom bodies by equalizing activity levels.

The paper develops a thalamocortical network model to explain novelty detection through synaptic depression in cortical layer 6 and thalamic oscillations, showing similarity to EEG-based mismatch negativity.

This study shows glucose exposure harms the neurovascular unit and behavior in zebrafish, but sodium nitroprusside reverses these effects.

This paper presents a neural network model of the honey bee brain that learns abstract concepts like sameness and difference, matching real bee behavior without requiring top-down processing.

This paper introduces a clustering-based analysis of rat movement patterns in the Active Allothetic Place Avoidance task, identifying six new movement motifs affected by silver nanoparticles.
