However, the expensive computational cost severely limits the applications in both the neuroscience and AI fields. The major bottleneck during simulating detailed compartment models is the ability of a simulator to solve large systems of linear equations.

However, such methods rely heavily on prior knowledge to generate practical strategies on how to split a single neuron into compartments (Fig. ; Supplementary Fig. ). Hence, it becomes less efficient for neurons with asymmetrical morphologies, e.g., pyramidal neurons and Purkinje neurons. 27 28 38 1g−i 1 We aim to develop a more efficient and precise parallel method for the simulation of biologically detailed neural networks. First, we establish the criteria for the accuracy of a cellular-level parallel method. Based on the theories in parallel computing , we propose three conditions to make sure a parallel method will yield identical solutions as the serial computing Hines method according to the data dependency in the Hines method (see Methods). Then to theoretically evaluate the run time, i.e., efficiency, of the serial and parallel computing methods, we introduce and formulate the concept of computational cost as the number of steps a method takes in solving equations (see Methods). 34 ដោយផ្អែកលើភាពត្រឹមត្រូវនៃការប្រៀបធៀបនិងទូទាត់ទូទាត់, យើងបានបង្កើតបញ្ហា paralelization ដូចជាបញ្ហាការប្រៀបធៀបទូទាត់ទូទាត់ (មើលវិធីសាស្រ្ត) ។ ក្នុងនាមជាការប្រៀបធៀបធៀប, យើងមើលឃើញអេឡិចត្រូនិចមួយតែមួយដូចជាខ្នាតដែលមានខ្នាតជាច្រើន (ផ្នែក) ។ សម្រាប់ parallel threads, we can compute at most nodes at each step, but we need to ensure a node is computed only if all its children nodes have been processed; our goal is to find a strategy with the minimum number of steps for the entire procedure. k k To generate an optimal partition, we propose a method called Dendritic Hierarchical Scheduling (DHS) (theoretical proof is presented in the Methods). The key idea of DHS is to prioritize deep nodes (Fig. ), which results in a hierarchical schedule order. The DHS method includes two steps: analyzing dendritic topology and finding the best partition: (1) Given a detailed model, we first obtain its corresponding dependency tree and calculate the depth of each node (the depth of a node is the number of its ancestor nodes) on the tree (Fig. ). (2) After topology analysis, we search the candidates and pick at most deepest candidate nodes (a node is a candidate only if all its children nodes have been processed). This procedure repeats until all nodes are processed (Fig. ). 2A 2B និង C k 2D ប្រព័ន្ធប្រតិបត្តិការ DHS deepest candidate nodes each iteration.

For each model, the soma is selected as the root of the tree so the depth of the node increases from the soma (0) to the distal dendrites.

Because nodes in the same subset can be processed in parallel, it takes only five steps to process all nodes using DHS (Fig. ) ។ 2D 2e បន្ទាប់មកយើងអនុវត្តវិធី DHS នៅលើគំរូ neuron ដែលមានលក្ខណៈពិសេស 6 (ជ្រើសពី ModelDB) ។ ) with different numbers of threads (Fig. ): រួមទាំងអេឡិចត្រូនិក piramidal cortical និង hippocampal , , , cerebellar Purkinje neurons , striatal projection neurons (SPN ), and olfactory bulb mitral cells , covering the major principal neurons in sensory, cortical and subcortical areas. We then measured the computational cost. The relative computational cost here is defined by the proportion of the computational cost of DHS to that of the serial Hines method. The computational cost, i.e., the number of steps taken in solving equations, drops dramatically with increasing thread numbers. For example, with 16 threads, the computational cost of DHS is 7%-10% as compared to the serial Hines method. Intriguingly, the DHS method reaches the lower bounds of their computational cost for presented neurons when given 16 or even 8 parallel threads (Fig. ), ការបង្ហាញពីការបន្ថែមបំណងច្រើនទៀតមិនបង្កើនការអនុវត្តបន្ថែមទៀតដោយសារតែការផ្លាស់ប្តូររវាងបំណង។ 39 2f 40 41 42 43 44 45 2F យើងបានបង្កើតវិធីសាស្រ្ត DHS ដែលអនុញ្ញាតឱ្យការដោះស្រាយដោយស្វ័យប្រវត្តិនៃ topology dendritic និង partition អតិបរមាសម្រាប់ការទិន្នន័យ paralel ។ វាគឺជាការគួរឱ្យចាប់អារម្មណ៍ថាតើ DHS បានរកឃើញ partition អតិបរមាមុនពេលចាប់ផ្តើមការប្រៀបធៀបនិងមិនត្រូវការការការទិន្នន័យបន្ថែមទៀតដើម្បីដោះស្រាយប្រៀបធៀប។ Speeding up DHS by GPU memory boosting DHS computes each neuron with multiple threads, which consumes a vast amount of threads when running neural network simulations.

However, we consistently observed that the efficiency of DHS significantly decreased when the network size grew, which might result from scattered data storage or extra memory access caused by loading and writing intermediate results (Fig. , left). 3a, b 46 3c 3d ទិន្នន័យនៃការបញ្ជាទិន្នន័យនៃការបញ្ជាទិន្នន័យនៃការបញ្ជាទិន្នន័យនៃការបញ្ជាទិន្នន័យនៃការបញ្ជាទិន្នន័យនៃការបញ្ជាទិន្នន័យនៃការបញ្ជាទិន្នន័យនៃការបញ្ជាទិន្នន័យនៃការបញ្ជាទិន្នន័យនៃការបញ្ជាទិន្នន័យ។ Architecture of Streaming Multiprocessors (SMs).

Based on the memory loading mechanism of GPU, successive threads loading aligned and successively-stored data lead to a high memory throughput compared to accessing scatter-stored data, which reduces memory throughput , . To achieve high throughput, we first align the computing orders of nodes and rearrange threads according to the number of nodes on them. Then we permute data storage in global memory, consistent with computing orders, i.e., nodes that are processed at the same step are stored successively in global memory. Moreover, we use GPU registers to store intermediate results, further strengthening memory throughput. The example shows that memory boosting takes only two memory transactions to load eight request data (Fig. , right). Furthermore, experiments on multiple numbers of pyramidal neurons with spines and the typical neuron models (Fig. ; Supplementary Fig. ) show that memory boosting achieves a 1.2-3.8 times speedup as compared to the naïve DHS. 46 47 3d 3e, f 2 To comprehensively test the performance of DHS with GPU memory boosting, we select six typical neuron models and evaluate the run time of solving cable equations on massive numbers of each model (Fig. ). យើងបានសាកល្បង DHS ជាមួយនឹងការបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះបណ្តុះ លើសពីនេះទៀតប្រៀបធៀបទៅនឹងវិធីសាស្រ្ត Hines ស៊េរីធម្មតានៅក្នុង NEURON ដែលធ្វើដំណើរជាមួយនឹងដំណាក់កាលតែមួយនៃ CPU, DHS បានបង្កើនល្បឿនលឿនការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរតាមរយៈការធ្វើដំណើរ។ ), while retaining the identical numerical accuracy in the presence of dense spines (Supplementary Figs. និង ), active dendrites (Supplementary Fig. ) and different segmentation strategies (Supplementary Fig. ). 4 4A 3 4 8 7 7 Run time of solving equations for a 1 s simulation on GPU (dt = 0.025 ms, 40,000 iterations in total).

Interestingly, DHS generates aligned partitions in morphologically symmetric neurons such as the striatal projection neuron (SPN) and the Mitral cell (Fig. ).

Using this principle, we built the open-access DeepDendrite platform, which can be utilized by neuroscientists to implement models without any specific GPU programming knowledge. Below, we demonstrate how we can utilize DeepDendrite in neuroscience tasks. We also discuss the potential of the DeepDendrite framework for AI-related tasks in the Discussion section. DHS enables spine-level modelling As dendritic spines receive most of the excitatory input to cortical and hippocampal pyramidal neurons, striatal projection neurons, etc., their morphologies and plasticity are crucial for regulating neuronal excitability , , , , . However, spines are too small ( ~ 1 μm length) to be directly measured experimentally with regard to voltage-dependent processes. Thus, theoretical work is critical for the full understanding of the spine computations. 10 48 49 50 51 We can model a single spine with two compartments: the spine head where synapses are located and the spine neck that links the spine head to dendrites វេជ្ជសាស្រ្តនេះបានបង្ហាញថានៅពេលនេះថានៅពេលនេះថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលាថានៅពេលវេលា។ . However, the detailed model with fully distributed spines on dendrites (“full-spine model”) is computationally very expensive. A common compromising solution is to modify the capacitance and resistance of the membrane by a ប្រភេទ Spine Factor , instead of modeling all spines explicitly. Here, the កុំព្យូទ័រ vertebrate ដែលមានគោលបំណងដើម្បីប្រសើរឡើងនូវប្រសិទ្ធិភាពរបស់ vertebrate នៅលើលក្ខណៈសម្បត្តិ biophysical នៃ membrane កុំព្យូទ័រ។ . 52 53 F 54 F 54 Inspired by the previous work of Eyal et al. , we investigated how different spatial patterns of excitatory inputs formed on dendritic spines shape neuronal activities in a human pyramidal neuron model with explicitly modeled spines (Fig. ). Noticeably, Eyal et al. employed the spine factor to incorporate spines into dendrites while only a few activated spines were explicitly attached to dendrites (“few-spine model” in Fig. ) តម្លៃ នៃ spine in their model was computed from the dendritic area and spine area in the reconstructed data. Accordingly, we calculated the spine density from their reconstructed data to make our full-spine model more consistent with Eyal’s few-spine model. With the spine density set to 1.3 μm-1, the pyramidal neuron model contained about 25,000 spines without altering the model’s original morphological and biophysical properties. Further, we repeated the previous experiment protocols with both full-spine and few-spine models. We use the same synaptic input as in Eyal’s work but attach extra background noise to each sample. By comparing the somatic traces (Fig. ) and spike probability (Fig. ) in full-spine and few-spine models, we found that the full-spine model is much leakier than the few-spine model. In addition, the spike probability triggered by the activation of clustered spines appeared to be more nonlinear in the full-spine model (the solid blue line in Fig. ) than in the few-spine model (the dashed blue line in Fig. ). These results indicate that the conventional F-factor method may underestimate the impact of dense spine on the computations of dendritic excitability and nonlinearity. 51 5a F 5a F 5b, c 5d 5d 5d Experiment setup. We examine two major types of models: few-spine models and full-spine models. Few-spine models (two on the left) are the models that incorporated spine area globally into dendrites and only attach individual spines together with activated synapses. In full-spine models (two on the right), all spines are explicitly attached over whole dendrites. We explore the effects of clustered and randomly distributed synaptic inputs on the few-spine models and the full-spine models, respectively. Somatic voltages recorded for cases in .

Therefore, the DHS method enables explorations of dendritic excitability under more realistic anatomic conditions. 5e 1 4 8 Discussion In this work, we propose the DHS method to parallelize the computation of Hines method and we mathematically demonstrate that the DHS provides an optimal solution without any loss of precision. Next, we implement DHS on the GPU hardware platform and use GPU memory boosting techniques to refine the DHS (Fig. ). When simulating a large number of neurons with complex morphologies, DHS with memory boosting achieves a 15-fold speedup (Supplementary Table ) as compared to the GPU method used in CoreNEURON and up to 1,500-fold speedup compared to serial Hines method in the CPU platform (Fig. លក្ខណៈពិសេស Fig. and Supplementary Table ). Furthermore, we develop the GPU-based DeepDendrite framework by integrating DHS into CoreNEURON. Finally, as a demonstration of the capacity of DeepDendrite, we present a representative application: examine spine computations in a detailed pyramidal neuron model with 25,000 spines. Further in this section, we elaborate on how we have expanded the DeepDendrite framework to enable efficient training of biophysically detailed neural networks. To explore the hypothesis that dendrites improve robustness against adversarial attacks , we train our network on typical image classification tasks. We show that DeepDendrite can support both neuroscience simulations and AI-related detailed neural network tasks with unprecedented speed, therefore significantly promoting detailed neuroscience simulations and potentially for future AI explorations. 55 3 1 4 3 1 56 Decades of efforts have been invested in speeding up the Hines method with parallel methods. Early work mainly focuses on network-level parallelization. In network simulations, each cell independently solves its corresponding linear equations with the Hines method. Network-level parallel methods distribute a network on multiple threads and parallelize the computation of each cell group with each thread , . With network-level methods, we can simulate detailed networks on clusters or supercomputers . In recent years, GPU has been used for detailed network simulation. Because the GPU contains massive computing units, one thread is usually assigned one cell rather than a cell group , , ទោះជាយ៉ាងណាក៏ដោយការទិន្នន័យក្នុងកុំព្យូទ័រនៅក្នុងកុំព្យូទ័រទាំងអស់នេះគឺជាការប្រសិទ្ធភាពខ្ពស់ជាងមុននៅលើកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យូទ័រកុំព្យ 57 58 59 35 60 61 Cellular-level parallel methods further parallelize the computation inside each cell. The main idea of cellular-level parallel methods is to split each cell into several sub-blocks and parallelize the computation of those sub-blocks , . However, typical cellular-level methods (e.g., the “multi-split” method ) pay less attention to the parallelization strategy. The lack of a fine parallelization strategy results in unsatisfactory performance. To achieve higher efficiency, some studies try to obtain finer-grained parallelization by introducing extra computation operations , , or making approximations on some crucial compartments, while solving linear equations , . These finer-grained parallelization strategies can get higher efficiency but lack sufficient numerical accuracy as in the original Hines method. 27 28 28 29 38 62 63 64 Unlike previous methods, DHS adopts the finest-grained parallelization strategy, i.e., compartment-level parallelization. By modeling the problem of “how to parallelize” as a combinatorial optimization problem, DHS provides an optimal compartment-level parallelization strategy. Moreover, DHS does not introduce any extra operation or value approximation, so it achieves the lowest computational cost and retains sufficient numerical accuracy as in the original Hines method at the same time. Dendritic spines are the most abundant microstructures in the brain for projection neurons in the cortex, hippocampus, cerebellum, and basal ganglia. As spines receive most of the excitatory inputs in the central nervous system, electrical signals generated by spines are the main driving force for large-scale neuronal activities in the forebrain and cerebellum , . The structure of the spine, with an enlarged spine head and a very thin spine neck—leads to surprisingly high input impedance at the spine head, which could be up to 500 MΩ, combining experimental data and the detailed compartment modeling approach , ដោយសារតែអធិប្បាយអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអំណាចអ , , thereby boosting NMDA currents and ion channel currents in the spine . However, in the classic single detailed compartment models, all spines are replaced by the coefficient modifying the dendritic cable geometries . This approach may compensate for the leak currents and capacitance currents for spines. Still, it cannot reproduce the high input impedance at the spine head, which may weaken excitatory synaptic inputs, particularly NMDA currents, thereby reducing the nonlinearity in the neuron’s input-output curve. Our modeling results are in line with this interpretation. 10 11 48 65 48 66 11 F 54 ទោះជាយ៉ាងណាក៏ដោយការផ្លាស់ប្តូរអគ្គិសនីនៃមហារីកគឺជារៀងរាល់ពេលរួមជាមួយការផ្លាស់ប្តូរ biochemical ។ , , , resulting in a drastic increase of internal [Ca2+], within the spine and a cascade of molecular processes involving synaptic plasticity of importance for learning and memory. Intriguingly, the biochemical process triggered by learning, in turn, remodels the spine’s morphology, enlarging (or shrinking) the spine head, or elongating (or shortening) the spine neck, which significantly alters the spine’s electrical capacity , , , . Such experience-dependent changes in spine morphology also referred to as “structural plasticity”, have been widely observed in the visual cortex , , somatosensory cortex , , motor cortex , hippocampus , and the basal ganglia in vivo. They play a critical role in motor and spatial learning as well as memory formation. However, due to the computational costs, nearly all detailed network models exploit the “F-factor” approach to replace actual spines, and are thus unable to explore the spine functions at the system level. By taking advantage of our framework and the GPU platform, we can run a few thousand detailed neurons models, each with tens of thousands of spines on a single GPU, while maintaining ~100 times faster than the traditional serial method on a single CPU (Fig. ). Therefore, it enables us to explore of structural plasticity in large-scale circuit models across diverse brain regions. 8 52 67 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 9 76 5e Another critical issue is how to link dendrites to brain functions at the systems/network level. It has been well established that dendrites can perform comprehensive computations on synaptic inputs due to enriched ion channels and local biophysical membrane properties , , . For example, cortical pyramidal neurons can carry out sublinear synaptic integration at the proximal dendrite but progressively shift to supralinear integration at the distal dendrite . Moreover, distal dendrites can produce regenerative events such as dendritic sodium spikes, calcium spikes, and NMDA spikes/plateau potentials , . Such dendritic events are widely observed in mice or even human cortical neurons in vitro, which may offer various logical operations , or gating functions , .

However, running a large-scale detailed circuit model of 10,000-100,000 neurons generally requires the computing power of supercomputers. It is even more challenging to optimize such models for in vivo data, as it needs iterative simulations of the models. The DeepDendrite framework can directly support many state-of-the-art large-scale circuit models , , , which were initially developed based on NEURON. Moreover, using our framework, a single GPU card such as Tesla A100 could easily support the operation of detailed circuit models of up to 10,000 neurons, thereby providing carbon-efficient and affordable plans for ordinary labs to develop and optimize their own large-scale detailed models. 86 87 88 Recent works on unraveling the dendritic roles in task-specific learning have achieved remarkable results in two directions, i.e., solving challenging tasks such as image classification dataset ImageNet with simplified dendritic networks , and exploring full learning potentials on more realistic neuron , . However, there lies a trade-off between model size and biological detail, as the increase in network scale is often sacrificed for neuron-level complexity , , . Moreover, more detailed neuron models are less mathematically tractable and computationally expensive . 20 21 22 19 20 89 21 There has also been progress in the role of active dendrites in ANNs for computer vision tasks. Iyer et al. . proposed a novel ANN architecture with active dendrites, demonstrating competitive results in multi-task and continual learning. Jones and Kording used a binary tree to approximate dendrite branching and provided valuable insights into the influence of tree structure on single neurons’ computational capacity. Bird et al. . proposed a dendritic normalization rule based on biophysical behavior, offering an interesting perspective on the contribution of dendritic arbor structure to computation. While these studies offer valuable insights, they primarily rely on abstractions derived from spatially extended neurons, and do not fully exploit the detailed biological properties and spatial information of dendrites. Further investigation is needed to unveil the potential of leveraging more realistic neuron models for understanding the shared mechanisms underlying brain computation and deep learning. 90 91 92 In response to these challenges, we developed DeepDendrite, a tool that uses the Dendritic Hierarchical Scheduling (DHS) method to significantly reduce computational costs and incorporates an I/O module and a learning module to handle large datasets. With DeepDendrite, we successfully implemented a three-layer hybrid neural network, the Human Pyramidal Cell Network (HPC-Net) (Fig. ). This network demonstrated efficient training capabilities in image classification tasks, achieving approximately 25 times speedup compared to training on a traditional CPU-based platform (Fig. ; Supplementary Table ). 6a, b 6f 1 The illustration of the Human Pyramidal Cell Network (HPC-Net) for image classification.

Intriguingly, an existing hypothesis suggests that dendrites and synapses may innately defend against such attacks . Our experimental results utilizing HPC-Net lend support to this hypothesis, as we observed that networks endowed with detailed dendritic structures demonstrated some increased resilience to transfer adversarial attacks compared to standard ANNs, as evident in MNIST and Fashion-MNIST datasets (Fig. ) សាកល្បងនេះបង្ហាញថានេះថានឹងមានគុណភាព biophysical ដែលមាននៅក្នុង dendrites អាចជាការសំខាន់ក្នុងការបង្កើនភាពរឹងមាំនៃ ANNs នៅលើការភ្ជាប់ adversarial ។ ទោះបីជាយ៉ាងណាក៏ដោយវាគឺជាការសំខាន់ក្នុងការធ្វើការសិក្សាបន្ថែមទៀតដើម្បីត្រួតពិនិត្យការរកឃើញនេះដោយប្រើកំណត់ទិន្នន័យដែលមានតម្រូវការជាងមុនដូចជា ImageNet ។ . 93 56 94 95 96 6d, e 97 In conclusion, DeepDendrite has shown remarkable potential in image classification tasks, opening up a world of exciting future directions and possibilities. To further advance DeepDendrite and the application of biologically detailed dendritic models in AI tasks, we may focus on developing multi-GPU systems and exploring applications in other domains, such as Natural Language Processing (NLP), where dendritic filtering properties align well with the inherently noisy and ambiguous nature of human language. Challenges include testing scalability in larger-scale problems, understanding performance across various tasks and domains, and addressing the computational complexity introduced by novel biological principles, such as active dendrites. By overcoming these limitations, we can further advance the understanding and capabilities of biophysically detailed dendritic neural networks, potentially uncovering new advantages, enhancing their robustness against adversarial attacks and noisy inputs, and ultimately bridging the gap between neuroscience and modern AI. Methods Simulation with DHS CoreNEURON simulator ( ) uses the NEURON architecture and is optimized for both memory usage and computational speed. We implement our Dendritic Hierarchical Scheduling (DHS) method in the CoreNEURON environment by modifying its source code. All models that can be simulated on GPU with CoreNEURON can also be simulated with DHS by executing the following command: 35 https://github.com/BlueBrain/CoreNeuron 25 coreneuron_exec -d /path/to/models -e time --cell-permute 3 --cell-nthread 16 --gpu The usage options are as in Table . 1 Accuracy of the simulation using cellular-level parallel computation To ensure the accuracy of the simulation, we first need to define the correctness of a cellular-level parallel algorithm to judge whether it will generate identical solutions compared with the proven correct serial methods, like the Hines method used in the NEURON simulation platform. Based on the theories in parallel computing , a parallel algorithm will yield an identical result as its corresponding serial algorithm, if and only if the data process order in the parallel algorithm is consistent with data dependency in the serial method. The Hines method has two symmetrical phases: triangularization and back-substitution. By analyzing the serial computing Hines method , we find that its data dependency can be formulated as a tree structure, where the nodes on the tree represent the compartments of the detailed neuron model. In the triangularization process, the value of each node depends on its children nodes. In contrast, during the back-substitution process, the value of each node is dependent on its parent node (Fig. ). Thus, we can compute nodes on different branches in parallel as their values are not dependent. 34 55 1d Based on the data dependency of the serial computing Hines method, we propose three conditions to make sure a parallel method will yield identical solutions as the serial computing Hines method: (1) The tree morphology and initial values of all nodes are identical to those in the serial computing Hines method; (2) In the triangularization phase, a node can be processed if and only if all its children nodes are already processed; (3) In the back-substitution phase, a node can be processed only if its parent node is already processed. Once a parallel computing method satisfies these three conditions, it will produce identical solutions as the serial computing method. Computational cost of cellular-level parallel computing method To theoretically evaluate the run time, i.e., efficiency, of the serial and parallel computing methods, we introduce and formulate the concept of computational cost as follows: given a tree និង threads (basic computational units) to perform triangularization, parallel triangularization equals to divide the node set of into subsets, i.e., = { , , … } នៅពេលដែលទំហំនៃការ subset ទាំងអស់ | ≤ , i.e., at most nodes can be processed each step since there are only threads. The process of the triangularization phase follows the order: → → … → , and nodes in the same subset can be processed in parallel. So, we define | | (the size of set , i.e., here) as the computational cost of the parallel computing method. In short, we define the computational cost of a parallel method as the number of steps it takes in the triangularization phase. Because the back-substitution is symmetrical with triangularization, the total cost of the entire solving equation phase is twice that of the triangularization phase. T k V T n V V1 V2 Vn Vi k k k V1 V2 Vn Vi V V n Mathematical scheduling problem Based on the simulation accuracy and computational cost, we formulate the parallelization problem as a mathematical scheduling problem: Given a tree = { , } and a positive integer , where វាគឺជា node-set និង is the edge set. Define partition ( ) = { , , … ហ្វេសប៊ុក | ≤ , 1 ≤ ≤ n, where | | indicates the cardinal number of subset , i.e., the number of nodes in , and for each node ∈ , all its children nodes { | ∈children( )} must in a previous subset , where 1 ≤ < .

To get the optimal partition, DHS first analyzes the topology and calculates the depth ( ) for all nodes ∈ . Then, the following two steps will be executed iteratively until every node ∈ is assigned to a subset: (1) find all candidate nodes and put these nodes into candidate set . A node is a candidate only if all its child nodes have been processed or it does not have any child nodes.

Nodes in the same subset will be computed in parallel, taking steps to perform triangularization and back-substitution, respectively. We then demonstrate that the reordering of the computation in DHS will result in a result identical to the serial Hines method.

Below we demonstrate that the computation order determined by ( ) satisfies the correctness conditions. ( ) is obtained from the given neural tree . Operations in DHS do not modify the tree topology and values of tree nodes (corresponding values in the linear equations), so the tree morphology and initial values of all nodes are not changed, which satisfies condition 1: the tree morphology and initial values of all nodes are identical to those in serial Hines method. In triangularization, nodes are processed from subset to . As shown in the implementation of DHS, all nodes in subset are selected from the candidate set , and a node can be put into only if all its child nodes have been processed. Thus the child nodes of all nodes in are in { , , … }, meaning that a node is only computed after all its children have been processed, which satisfies condition 2: in triangularization, a node can be processed if and only if all its child nodes are already processed. In back-substitution, the computation order is the opposite of that in triangularization, i.e., from to . As shown before, the child nodes of all nodes in are in { , , … }, so parent nodes of nodes in are in { , , … }, which satisfies condition 3: in back-substitution, a node can be processed only if its parent node is already processed.

For each subset in ( ), DHS moves (ទូទាត់) កម្រិតខ្ពស់បំផុតពីកំណត់គម្រោងប្រហែលប្រហែល to . If the number of nodes in is smaller than , move all nodes from to .

We then prove that selecting the deepest nodes in each iteration makes an optimal partition. If there exists an optimal partition = { លោក , … } containing subsets that do not satisfy the max-depth criteria, we can modify the subsets in ( ) so that all subsets consist of the deepest nodes from and the number of subsets ( | ( )|) remain the same after modification. Vi P V k Qi Vi Qi k Qi Vi Di k Qi P V 6A P(V) P*(V) V*1 V*2 V*s P* V Q P* V Without any loss of generalization, we start from the first subset not satisfying the criteria, i.e., .

For case (2), | | = , these deeper nodes that are not moved from the candidate set into must be added to subsequent subsets (Supplementary Fig. , bottom). These deeper nodes can be moved from subsequent subsets to through the following method. Assume that after filling , is picked and one of the -th deepest nodes is still in , thus will be put into a subsequent subset ( > ). We first move from to + លទ្ធផល , then modify subset + as follows: if | + | ≤ and none of the nodes in + is the parent of node ទោះជាយ៉ាងណាក៏ដោយអ្នកចង់ផ្លាស់ប្តូរប្រព័ន្ធប្រតិបត្តិការរបស់អ្នក។ ប្រសិនបើអ្នកចង់ផ្លាស់ប្តូរ + as follows (Supplementary Fig. ): if the parent node of មាននៅក្នុង + , move this parent node to + ; else move the node with minimum depth from + to + .

We can modify the nodes with the same strategy for all subsets in ( ) that do not contain the deepest nodes. Finally, all subsets ∈ ( ) can satisfy the max-depth criteria, and | ( )| does not change after modifying. V*i k Qi P* V ក * V V*i P* V P* V In conclusion, DHS generates a partition ( ), and all subsets ∈ ( ) satisfy the max-depth condition: . For any other optimal partition ( ) we can modify its subsets to make its structure the same as ( ), i.e., each subset consists of the deepest nodes in the candidate set, and keep | ( ) the same after modification. So, the partition ( ) obtained from DHS is one of the optimal partitions. P V Vi P V ក * V P V P* V | P V GPU implementation and memory boosting To achieve high memory throughput, GPU utilizes the memory hierarchy of (1) global memory, (2) cache, (3) register, where global memory has large capacity but low throughput, while registers have low capacity but high throughput. We aim to boost memory throughput by leveraging the memory hierarchy of GPU. GPU employs SIMT (Single-Instruction, Multiple-Thread) architecture. Warps are the basic scheduling units on GPU (a warp is a group of 32 parallel threads). A warp executes the same instruction with different data for different threads . Correctly ordering the nodes is essential for this batching of computation in warps, to make sure DHS obtains identical results as the serial Hines method. When implementing DHS on GPU, we first group all cells into multiple warps based on their morphologies. Cells with similar morphologies are grouped in the same warp. We then apply DHS on all neurons, assigning the compartments of each neuron to multiple threads. Because neurons are grouped into warps, the threads for the same neuron are in the same warp. Therefore, the intrinsic synchronization in warps keeps the computation order consistent with the data dependency of the serial Hines method. Finally, threads in each warp are aligned and rearranged according to the number of compartments. 46 When a warp loads pre-aligned and successively-stored data from global memory, it can make full use of the cache, which leads to high memory throughput, while accessing scatter-stored data would reduce memory throughput. After compartments assignment and threads rearrangement, we permute data in global memory to make it consistent with computing orders so that warps can load successively-stored data when executing the program. Moreover, we put those necessary temporary variables into registers rather than global memory. Registers have the highest memory throughput, so the use of registers further accelerates DHS. Full-spine and few-spine biophysical models We used the published human pyramidal neuron សមត្ថភាពនៃ membrane m = 0.44 μF cm-2, membrane resistance m = 48,300 Ω cm2, and axial resistivity a = 261.97 Ω cm. In this model, all dendrites were modeled as passive cables while somas were active. The leak reversal potential l = -83.1 mV. Ion channels such as Na+ and K+ were inserted on soma and initial axon, and their reversal potentials were Na = 67.6 mV, K = -102 mV respectively. All these specific parameters were set the same as in the model of Eyal, et al. , សម្រាប់ព័ត៌មានបន្ថែម សូមពិនិត្យមើលគំរូដែលបានបោះពុម្ព (ModelDB, Access No. 238347) ។ 51 c r r E E E 51 In the few-spine model, the membrane capacitance and maximum leak conductance of the dendritic cables 60 μm away from soma were multiplied by a spine factor to approximate dendritic spines. In this model, spine was set to 1.9. Only the spines that receive synaptic inputs were explicitly attached to dendrites. F F In the full-spine model, all spines were explicitly attached to dendrites. We calculated the spine density with the reconstructed neuron in Eyal, et al. . The spine density was set to 1.3 μm-1, and each cell contained 24994 spines on dendrites 60 μm away from the soma. 51 គំនូរជីវចលនិងរចនាសម្ព័ន្ធជីវចលនៃជំងឺមហារីកគឺដូចគ្នានៅក្នុងគំរូជំងឺមហារីកទាំងស្រុងនិងជំងឺមហារីកទាំងស្រុង។ ប្រវែងនៃជំងឺមហារីកទាំងស្រុង neck = 1.35 μm and the diameter neck = 0.25 μm, whereas the length and diameter of the spine head were 0.944 μm, i.e., the spine head area was set to 2.8 μm2. Both spine neck and spine head were modeled as passive cables, with the reversal potential = -86 mV. The specific membrane capacitance, membrane resistance, and axial resistivity were the same as those for dendrites. L D El Synaptic inputs We investigated neuronal excitability for both distributed and clustered synaptic inputs. All activated synapses were attached to the terminal of the spine head. For distributed inputs, all activated synapses were randomly distributed on all dendrites. For clustered inputs, each cluster consisted of 20 activated synapses that were uniformly distributed on a single randomly-selected compartment. All synapses were activated simultaneously during the simulation. AMPA-based and NMDA-based synaptic currents were simulated as in Eyal et al.’s work. AMPA conductance was modeled as a double-exponential function and NMDA conduction as a voltage-dependent double-exponential function. For the AMPA model, the specific rise and decay were set to 0.3 and 1.8 ms. For the NMDA model, rise and decay were set to 8.019 and 34.9884 ms, respectively. The maximum conductance of AMPA and NMDA were 0.73 nS and 1.31 nS. τ τ τ τ Background noise We attached background noise to each cell to simulate a more realistic environment. Noise patterns were implemented as Poisson spike trains with a constant rate of 1.0 Hz. Each pattern started at start = 10 ms and lasted until the end of the simulation. We generated 400 noise spike trains for each cell and attached them to randomly-selected synapses. The model and specific parameters of synaptic currents were the same as described in , except that the maximum conductance of NMDA was uniformly distributed from 1.57 to 3.275, resulting in a higher AMPA to NMDA ratio. t Synaptic Inputs Exploring neuronal excitability We investigated the spike probability when multiple synapses were activated simultaneously. For distributed inputs, we tested 14 cases, from 0 to 240 activated synapses. For clustered inputs, we tested 9 cases in total, activating from 0 to 12 clusters respectively. Each cluster consisted of 20 synapses. For each case in both distributed and clustered inputs, we calculated the spike probability with 50 random samples. Spike probability was defined as the ratio of the number of neurons fired to the total number of samples. All 1150 samples were simulated simultaneously on our DeepDendrite platform, reducing the simulation time from days to minutes. Performing AI tasks with the DeepDendrite platform Conventional detailed neuron simulators lack two functionalities important to modern AI tasks: (1) alternately performing simulations and weight updates without heavy reinitialization and (2) simultaneously processing multiple stimuli samples in a batch-like manner. Here we present the DeepDendrite platform, which supports both biophysical simulating and performing deep learning tasks with detailed dendritic models. DeepDendrite consists of three modules (Supplementary Fig. ): (1) an I/O module; (2) a DHS-based simulating module; (3) a learning module. When training a biophysically detailed model to perform learning tasks, users first define the learning rule, then feed all training samples to the detailed model for learning. In each step during training, the I/O module picks a specific stimulus and its corresponding teacher signal (if necessary) from all training samples and attaches the stimulus to the network model. Then, the DHS-based simulating module initializes the model and starts the simulation. After simulation, the learning module updates all synaptic weights according to the difference between model responses and teacher signals. After training, the learned model can achieve performance comparable to ANN. The testing phase is similar to training, except that all synaptic weights are fixed. 5 ម៉ូដែល HPC-Net Image classification is a typical task in the field of AI. In this task, a model should learn to recognize the content in a given image and output the corresponding label. Here we present the HPC-Net, a network consisting of detailed human pyramidal neuron models that can learn to perform image classification tasks by utilizing the DeepDendrite platform. HPC-Net has three layers, i.e., an input layer, a hidden layer, and an output layer. The neurons in the input layer receive spike trains converted from images as their input. Hidden layer neurons receive the output of input layer neurons and deliver responses to neurons in the output layer. The responses of the output layer neurons are taken as the final output of HPC-Net. Neurons between adjacent layers are fully connected. For each image stimulus, we first convert each normalized pixel to a homogeneous spike train. For pixel with coordinates ( ) in the image, the corresponding spike train has a constant interspike interval ISI( ) (in ms) which is determined by the pixel value ( ) as shown in Eq. ( ). x, y τ x, y p x, y 1 In our experiment, the simulation for each stimulus lasted 50 ms. All spike trains started at 9 + ISI ms and lasted until the end of the simulation. Then we attached all spike trains to the input layer neurons in a one-to-one manner. The synaptic current triggered by the spike arriving at time is given by τ t0 where វាគឺជាថាមពលបន្ទាប់ពី synaptic ដែលមានប្រសិទ្ធិភាព syn = 1 mV, the maximum synaptic conductance អតិបរមា = 0.05 μS, និងពេលវេលាធម្មតា = 0.5 ms. v E g τ Neurons in the input layer were modeled with a passive single-compartment model. The specific parameters were set as follows: membrane capacitance m = 1.0 μF សង់ទីម៉ែត្រ 2, ការធន់ទ្រាំប្លាស្ទិច m = 104 Ω cm2, axial resistivity a = 100 Ω cm, reversal potential of passive compartment l = 0 mV. c r r E The hidden layer contains a group of human pyramidal neuron models, receiving the somatic voltages of input layer neurons. The morphology was from Eyal, et al. , and all neurons were modeled with passive cables. The specific membrane capacitance m = 1.5 μF cm-2, membrane resistance m = 48,300 Ω cm2, axial resistivity a = 261.97 Ω cm, and the reversal potential of all passive cables l = 0 mV. Input neurons could make multiple connections to randomly-selected locations on the dendrites of hidden neurons. The synaptic current activated by the -th synapse of the -th input neuron on neuron ’s dendrite is defined as in Eq.

All specific parameters were set the same as those of the input neurons. Synaptic currents activated by hidden neurons are also in the form of Eq. ( ). 4 ការកំណត់រូបភាពដោយ HPC-Net For each input image stimulus, we first normalized all pixel values to 0.0-1.0. Then we converted normalized pixels to spike trains and attached them to input neurons. Somatic voltages of the output neurons are used to compute the predicted probability of each class, as shown in equation , where is the probability of -th class predicted by the HPC-Net, is the average somatic voltage from 20 ms to 50 ms of the -th output neuron, and indicates the number of classes, which equals the number of output neurons. The class with the maximum predicted probability is the final classification result. In this paper, we built the HPC-Net with 784 input neurons, 64 hidden neurons, and 10 output neurons. 6 pi i i C Synaptic plasticity rules for HPC-Net Inspired by previous work , we use a gradient-based learning rule to train our HPC-Net to perform the image classification task.

Transfer and input resistances are computed by NEURON. Mini-batch training is a typical method in deep learning for achieving higher prediction accuracy and accelerating convergence. DeepDendrite also supports mini-batch training. When training HPC-Net with mini-batch size batch, we make batch copies of HPC-Net. During training, each copy is fed with a different training sample from the batch. DeepDendrite first computes the weight update for each copy separately. After all copies in the current training batch are done, the average weight update is calculated and weights in all copies are updated by this same amount. N N ការប្រឆាំងនឹងការប្រឆាំងនឹងការប្រឆាំងនឹងការប្រឆាំងនឹង HPC-Net To demonstrate the robustness of HPC-Net, we tested its prediction accuracy on adversarial samples and compared it with an analogous ANN (one with the same 784-64-10 structure and ReLU activation, for fair comparison in our HPC-Net each input neuron only made one synaptic connection to each hidden neuron). We first trained HPC-Net and ANN with the original training set (original clean images). Then we added adversarial noise to the test set and measured their prediction accuracy on the noisy test set. We used the Foolbox , to generate adversarial noise with the FGSM method ANN ត្រូវបានបណ្តុះបណ្តាលជាមួយ PyTorch , and HPC-Net was trained with our DeepDendrite. For fairness, we generated adversarial noise on a significantly different network model, a 20-layer ResNet . The noise level ranged from 0.02 to 0.2. We experimented on two typical datasets, MNIST and Fashion-MNIST . Results show that the prediction accuracy of HPC-Net is 19% and 16.72% higher than that of the analogous ANN, respectively. 98 99 93 100 101 95 96 Reporting summary Further information on research design is available in the linked to this article.
