Computational Neuroscience Models Of The Basal Ganglia

Download or read book Computational Neuroscience Models of the Basal Ganglia written by V. Srinivasa Chakravarthy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a compendium of the aforementioned subclass of models of Basal Ganglia, which presents some the key existent theories of Basal Ganglia function. The book presents computational models of basal ganglia-related disorders, including Parkinson’s disease, schizophrenia, and addiction. Importantly, it highlights the applications of understanding the role of the basal ganglia to treat neurological and psychiatric disorders. The purpose of the present book is to amend and expand on James Houk’s book (MIT press; ASIN: B010BF4U9K) by providing a comprehensive overview on computational models of the basal ganglia. This book caters to researchers and academics from the area of computational cognitive neuroscience.
