    查看更多>>摘要:Brain-inspired computing,drawing inspiration from the fundamental structure and information-processing mechanisms of the human brain,has gained significant momentum in recent years.It has emerged as a research paradigm centered on brain-computer dual-driven and multi-network integration.One noteworthy instance of this paradigm is the hybrid neural network(HNN),which integrates computer-science-oriented artificial neural networks(ANNs)with neuroscience-oriented spiking neural networks(SNNs).HNNs exhibit distinct advantages in various intelligent tasks,including perception,cognition and learning.This paper presents a comprehensive review of HNNs with an emphasis on their origin,concepts,biological perspective,construction framework and supporting systems.Furthermore,insights and suggestions for potential research directions are provided aiming to propel the advancement of the HNN paradigm.

    查看更多>>摘要:Virtual brain twins are personalized,generative and adaptive brain models based on data from an individual's brain for scientific and clinical use.After a description of the key elements of virtual brain twins,we present the standard model for personalized whole-brain network models.The personalization is accomplished using a subject's brain imaging data by three means:(1)assemble cortical and subcortical areas in the subject-specific brain space;(2)directly map connectivity into the brain models,which can be generalized to other parameters;and(3)estimate relevant parameters through model inversion,typically using probabilistic machine learning.We present the use of personalized whole-brain network models in healthy ageing and five clinical diseases:epilepsy,Alzheimer's disease,multiple sclerosis,Parkinson's disease and psychiatric disorders.Specifically,we introduce spatial masks for relevant parameters and demonstrate their use based on the physiological and pathophysiological hypotheses.Finally,we pinpoint the key challenges and future directions.
