Mathematical and computer simulation of learning in living neural networks have typically focused on changes in the efficiency of synaptic connections represented by synaptic weights in the models. Synaptic plasticity is believed to be the cellular basis for learning and memory. In spiking neural networks composed of dynamical spiking units, a biologically relevant learning rule is based on the so-called spike-timing-dependent plasticity or STDP. However, experimental data suggest that synaptic plasticity is only a part of brain circuit plasticity, which also includes homeostatic and structural plasticity. A model of structural plasticity proposed in this study is based on the activity-dependent appearance and disappearance of synaptic connections. The results of the research indicate that such adaptive rewiring enables the consolidation of the effects of STDP in response to a local external stimulation of a neural network. Subsequently, a vector field approach is used to demonstrate the successive “recording” of spike paths in both functional connectome and synaptic connectome, and finally in the anatomical connectome of the network. Moreover, the findings suggest that the adaptive rewiring could stabilize network dynamics over time in the context of activity patterns’ reproducibility. A universal measure of such reproducibility introduced in this article is based on similarity between time-consequent patterns of the special vector fields characterizing both functional and anatomical connectomes. |
