Abstract :
This is a basic study on the visual simulation of neuronal activities using the Hodgkin-Huxley equation (1952). By employing parallel-distributed processing and the cellular automaton concept, this study seeks to reveal the complicated interaction between nerve cells both from microscopic and macroscopic views
