[A mathematical model of neuronal plasticity].

A model of the neuron is proposed which is capable of learning with a teacher. The model is based on hypothetic chemical processes which can proceed in a real nerve cell. It is shown that such model having O(N2) elements of the memory is capable of dividing in two classes O(N2) of different input images, where N is the dimensionality of the input vector.

Active electrogenesis of command neurons of defense behavior of the snail during conditioning.

A change in the active electrogenesis of command neurons of the defensive closing of the spiracle of the edible snail during the development, extinction, and repeat development of a classical conditioned defense reflex in response to tactile stimulation is described in this study; the tactile stimulation of another point of the body served as the differential stimulus. As the biological significance of the conditional stimulus increased as the result of training, the excitability of the command neurons in response to this stimulus increased. At the same time, the neurons manifested reduced excitability in response to the differential stimulus.

[The active electrogenesis of the command neurons in the defensive behavior of the mollusk during conditioning].

In the paper changes of active electrogenesis of the command neurones of defensive closure of snail pneumostome at elaboration, extinction and repeated elaboration of classic conditioned defensive reflex to tactile stimulus was described; the tactile stimulation of other point of the body served as a differentiating stimulus. During the increase of biological significance of conditioned stimulus as a result of learning the stimulation of the command neurones in response to this stimulus was raised. At the same time the neurones showed decreased excitability in response to differentiating stimulus.
