Hodgkin-Huxley (HH)-type model is the most famous computational model for simulating neural activity. It shows the highest accuracy in capturing neuronal spikes, and its model parameters have definite physiological meanings. However, HH-type models are computationally expensive. To address this problem, a previous study proposed a spike prediction module (SPM) to predict whether a spike will […]

The concept of cognitive reserve (CR) has been proposed as a protective factor that modifies the effect of brain pathology on cognitive performance. It has been characterized through CR proxies; however, they have intrinsic limitations. In this study, we utilized two different datasets containing tau, amyloid PET, and T1 magnetic resonance imaging. First, 91 Alzheimer’s […]
