Full-density multi-scale account of structure and dynamics of macaque visual cortex
We present a multi-scale spiking network model of all vision-related areas of macaque cortex that represents each area by a full-scale microcircuit with area-specific architecture. The layer- and population-resolved network connectivity integrates axonal tracing data from the CoCoMac database with recent quantitative tracing data, and is systematically refined using dynamical constraints. Simulations reveal a stable asynchronous irregular ground state with heterogeneous activity across areas, layers, and populations. Elicited by large-scale interactions, the model reproduces longer intrinsic time scales in higher compared to early visual areas. Activity propagates down the visual hierarchy, similar to experimental results associated with visual imagery. Cortico-cortical interaction patterns agree well with fMRI resting-state functional connectivity. The model bridges the gap between local and large-scale accounts of cortex, and clarifies how the detailed connectivity of cortex shapes its dynamics on multiple scales.

Density Filtering for a Flame-Embedding Approach Based on LargeEddy Simulation and the One-Dimensional Turbulence Model
The complex nature of turbulent combustion flows requires simulation and modeling of diverse scales. An approach to capturing the inherent multi-scale physics of the combustion phenomena is introduced by the present flam…
Negative density-dependent dispersal of the mountain pine beetle in Alberta
Understanding the mountain pine beetle's dispersal patterns is critical for evaluating its threat to Canada's boreal forests. It is generally believed that higher beetle densities lead to increased long-distance dispersa…
ScaleMAP: Preserving Local Density and Neighborhood Structure in Low-Dimensional Embeddings
Nonlinear dimensionality-reduction methods such as UMAP and PaCMAP adaptively normalize local distances during graph construction, erasing neighborhood scale from the data. This distorts more than relative cluster sizes:…
CODA: Counting Objects via Scale-aware Adversarial Density Adaption
Recent advances in crowd counting have achieved promising results with increasingly complex convolutional neural network designs. However, due to the unpredictable domain shift, generalizing trained model to unseen scena…
