From the text: The Banff International Research Station hosted a workshop in his honor, on Stochastic Network Models of Neocortex, July 17–24, 2014. This accompanying Festschrift celebrates Cowan’s contributions by assembling current research in stochastic phenomena in neural networks. It combines historical perspectives with new results including applications to epilepsy, path-integral methods, stochastic synchronization, higher-order correlation analysis, and pattern formation in visual cortex.
