Unsupervised Sparse Coding-based Spiking Neural Network for Real-time Spike Sorting
Spike sorting is a crucial step in decoding multichannel extracellular neural signals, enabling the identification of individual neuronal activity. A key challenge in brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) is achieving real-time, low-power spike sorting at the edge while keeping high neural decoding performance. This study introduces the Neuromorphic Sparse Sorter (NSS), a compact two-layer spiking neural network optimized for efficient spike sorting. NSS leverages the Locally Competitive Algorithm (L…

Relaxed uniqueness conditions for the parabolic Schrodinger equation on Riemannian manifolds
We study uniqueness for solutions to the Cauchy problem associated with the parabolic Schrödinger equation on complete noncompact Riemannian manifolds, under suitable integral conditions on the solution. We show that, under suitable assumptions on the potential V, the required integrability condition can be significantly relaxed compared to the case without potential. This improvement is achieved by exploiting the decay of positive solutions to the associated stationary Schrodinger equation. T…
