The Urbanczik-Senn plasticity model proposes a learning rule for dendritic synapses in a simplified compartmental neuron model. This rule extends traditional spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) by incorporating the local dendritic potential as a crucial third factor, alongside pre- and postsynaptic spike timings. In this post, we briefly introduce the Urbanczik-Senn plasticity model and discuss its implications for neural computation and learning.
