This two-term course gives an introduction into computational neuroscience and cognitive psychology. We will study neuronal networks at the levels of synapses, individual synapses and neural circuits, taking into consideration also psychological point of view. The main part of the course’s first term will cover neural spiking models and perceptional theories. The lecture will be given in Czech language in 2016/7 and in English language in 2017/8.
