Extended Spiking Neural P Systems with Excitatory and Inhibitory Astrocytes

Abstract

We investigate an extended model of spiking neural P systems incorporating
\nastrocytes and their excitatory or inhibitory influence on axons between neurons.
\nUsing very restricted variants of extended spiking neural P systems with excitatory and
\ninhibitory astrocytes we can easily model Boolean gates like NAND-gates as well as discrete
\namplifiers.
