Learning takes place in the connections
between to neurons, i.e. the synapses are the place where changes
are made if we learn something.
The changes in a synapse depend strongly on the timing of the
individual spikes the two neurons produce. Based on this experimental
results several models have been developed how such a time
depended learning scheme might be used in a network
of spiking neurons to learn something meaningful.
