Postsynaptic Potential Energy as Determinant of Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2022
Metabolic energy can be used as a unifying principle to control neuronal activity. However, whether and how metabolic energy alone can determine the outcome of synaptic plasticity remains unclear.

Random Walks for Spike-Timing Dependent Plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Random walk methods are used to calculate the moments of negative image equilibrium distributions in synaptic weight dynamics governed by spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP). The neural architecture of the model is based on the electrosensory lateral line lobe (ELL) of mormyrid electric fish, which forms a negative image of the reafferent signal ...

Rethinking the Role of Normalization and Residual Blocks for Spiking Neural Networks [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Biologically inspired spiking neural networks (SNNs) are widely used to realize ultralow-power energy consumption. However, deep SNNs are not easy to train due to the excessive firing of spiking neurons in the hidden layers.

Auditory Stimuli Coding by Postsynaptic Potential and Local Field Potential Features. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The relation between physical stimuli and neurophysiological responses, such as action potentials (spikes) and Local Field Potentials (LFP), has recently been experimented in order to explain how neurons encode auditory information.

Stability of Negative Image Equilibria in Spike-Timing Dependent Plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We investigate the stability of negative image equilibria in mean synaptic weight dynamics governed by spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP). The neural architecture of the model is based on the electrosensory lateral line lobe (ELL) of mormyrid electric fish, which forms a negative image of the reafferent signal from the fish's own electric ...

Analysis of the intraspinal calcium dynamics and its implications on the plasticity of spiking neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The influx of calcium ions into the dendritic spines through the N-metyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) channels is believed to be the primary trigger for various forms of synaptic plasticity. In this paper, the authors calculate analytically the mean values of the calcium transients elicited by a spiking neuron undergoing a simple model of ionic currents and back-

Postsynaptic GABA(B) Receptors Contribute to the Termination of Giant Depolarizing Potentials in CA3 Neonatal Rat Hippocampus [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
During development, hippocampal CA3 network generates recurrent population bursts, so-called Giant Depolarizing Potentials (GDPs). GDPs are characterized by synchronous depolarization and firing of CA3 pyramidal cells followed by afterhyperpolarization ...

Imperfect space clamp permits electrotonic interactions between inhibitory and excitatory synaptic conductances, distorting voltage clamp recordings. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The voltage clamp technique is frequently used to examine the strength and composition of synaptic input to neurons. Even accounting for imperfect voltage control of the entire cell membrane ("space clamp"), it is often assumed that currents measured at ...

Inference on the effect of non homogeneous inputs in Ornstein-Uhlenbeck neuronal modeling

open access: yesMathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2020
A non-homogeneous Ornstein-Uhlembeck (OU) diffusion process is considered as a model for the membrane potential activity of a single neuron. We assume that, in the absence of stimuli, the neuron activity is described via a time-homogeneous process with ...

Impact of the activation rate of the hyperpolarization-activated current $I_{\rm h}$ on the neuronal membrane time constant and synaptic potential duration [PDF]

open access: yesEur. Phys. J. Spec. Top. (2021), 2021
The temporal dynamics of membrane voltage changes in neurons is controlled by ionic currents. These currents are characterized by two main properties: conductance and kinetics. The hyperpolarization-activated current ($I_{\rm h}$) strongly modulates subthreshold potential changes by shortening the excitatory postsynaptic potentials and decreasing their
