Weighted Spiking Neural P Systems with Structural Plasticity Working in Sequential Mode Based on Maximum Spike Number

Spiking neural P systems (SNP systems, in short) are a group of parallel and distributed computing devices inspired by the function and structure of spiking neurons. Recently, a new variant of SNP systems, called SNP systems with structural plasticity (SNPSP systems, in short) was proposed. In SNPSP systems, neuron can use plasticity rules to create and delete synapses. In this work, we consider many restrictions sequentiality on SNPSP systems: (1) neuron with the maximum number of spikes is chosen to fire; (2) we use the weighted synapses. Specifically, we investigate the computational power of weighted SNPSP systems working in the sequential mode based on maximum spike number (WSNPSPM systems, in short) and we proved that SNPSP systems with these new restrictions are universal as generating devices.
