Abstract

The involvement of astrocytes in information processing in the brain has recently been demonstrated. In this paper, we investigate, using computational models (SOM and MLP), one of the observed astrocyte-neuron interactions for information processing: the neural modulation represented by the observed calcium waves. We apply it to solve classification problems. The results of the performed tests confirmed that the proposed approach improved artificial neural network performance, especially learning time acceleration.
