Growing dendrites enhance a neuron's computational power and memory capacity
WB Levy, RA Baxter - Neural Networks, 2023 - Elsevier
Neocortical pyramidal neurons have many dendrites, and such dendrites are capable of, in
isolation of one-another, generating a neuronal spike. It is also now understood that there is …
