  2. Synapse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synapse

    Synapses are essential for the transmission of neuronal impulses from one neuron to the next, [9] playing a key role in enabling rapid and direct communication by creating circuits. In addition, a synapse serves as a junction where both the transmission and processing of information occur, making it a vital means of communication between ...

  3. Electrical synapse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_synapse

    An electrical synapse, or gap junction, is a mechanical and electrically conductive synapse, a functional junction between two neighboring neurons. The synapse is formed at a narrow gap between the pre- and postsynaptic neurons known as a gap junction .

  4. Multiply–accumulate operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiply–accumulate...

    The MAC operation modifies an accumulator a: + () When done with floating-point numbers, it might be performed with two roundings (typical in many DSPs ), or with a single rounding. When performed with a single rounding, it is called a fused multiply–add ( FMA ) or fused multiply–accumulate ( FMAC ).

  5. Axon terminal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axon_terminal

    Axon terminals are specialized to release neurotransmitters very rapidly by exocytosis. [1] Neurotransmitter molecules are packaged into synaptic vesicles that cluster beneath the axon terminal membrane on the presynaptic side (A) of a synapse.

  6. Synaptic weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synaptic_weight

    The amount of neurotransmitter released into the synapse and the amount that can be absorbed in the following cell (determined by the number of AMPA and NMDA receptors on the cell membrane and the amount of intracellular calcium and other ions), The number of such connections made by the axon to the dendrites,

    The pitch that Synapse effectively gave to these smaller banks was "we’ll bring in the deposits; you don’t have to do much," according to Jason Mikula, an independent fintech consultant who ...

  9. Chemical synapse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_synapse

    The number of synapses in the human cerebral cortex has separately been estimated at 0.15 quadrillion (150 trillion) [3] The word "synapse" was introduced by Sir Charles Scott Sherrington in 1897. [4] Chemical synapses are not the only type of biological synapse: electrical and immunological synapses also exist. Without a qualifier, however ...
