title: Solving graph algorithms with networks of spiking neurons.
abstract: Spatio-temporal coding that combines spatial constraints with temporal sequencing is of great interest to brain-like circuit modelers. In this paper we present some new ideas of how these types of circuits can self-organize. We introduce a temporal correlation rule based on the time difference between the firings of neurons.With the aid of this rule we show an analogy between a graph and a network of spiking neurons. The shortest path, clustering based on the nearest neighbor, and the minimal spanning tree algorithms are solved using the proposed approach.
