Compartmental modelling of dendrites deals with multi-compartment modelling of the dendrites, to make the understanding of the electrical behavior of complex dendrites easier. Basically, compartmental modelling of dendrites is a very helpful tool to develop new biological neuron models. Dendrites are very important because they occupy the most membrane area in many of the neurons and give the neuron an ability to connect to thousands of other cells. Originally the dendrites were thought to have constant conductance and current but now it has been understood that they may have active Voltage-gated ion channels, which influences the firing properties of the neuron and also the response of neuron to synaptic inputs. Many mathematical models have been developed to understand the electric behavior of the dendrites. Dendrites tend to be very branchy and complex, so the compartmental approach to understand the electrical behavior of the dendrites makes it very useful. (Wikipedia).
(ML 13.6) Graphical model for Bayesian linear regression
As an example, we write down the graphical model for Bayesian linear regression. We introduce the "plate notation", and the convention of shading random variables which are being conditioned on.

Local and global inhibition in models of memory - Tom Burns
Broadly, there are two types of neurons: excitatory and inhibitory. Inhibitory neurons are amazingly diverse compared with excitatory neurons. Why? Using a computational model with realistically-sized groups of excitatory neurons (representing memories) associated together in a network of
