Firing Rate Homeostasis in Visual Cortex of Freely Behaving Rodents
It has been postulated that homeostatic mechanisms maintain stable circuit function by keeping neuronal firing within a set point range, but such firing rate homeostasis has never been demonstrated in vivo. Here we use chronic multielectrode recordings to monitor firing rates in visual cortex of freely behaving rats during chronic monocular visual deprivation (MD). Firing rates in V1 were suppr...
متن کاملFiring-rate Models for Neural Populations
I discuss the construction of models that describe the ring rates of excitatory and inhibitory neurons in biological neural networks. A model is presented that incorporates both slow linear and fast nonlinear inhibition. With the appropriate excitatory-to-excitatory couplings this model can act as an associative memory in which pattern recognition is signalled by resonant ring behavior. Stored ...
متن کاملA Globally Asymptotically Stable Plasticity Rule for Firing Rate Homeostasis
How can neural circuits maintain stable activity states when they are constantly being modified by Hebbian processes that are notorious for being unstable? A new synaptic plasticity mechanism is presented here that enables a neuron to obtain homeostasis of its firing rate over longer timescales while leaving the neuron free to exhibit fluctuating dynamics in response to external inputs. Mathema...
متن کاملOptimal neural rate coding leads to bimodal firing rate distributions.
Many experimental studies concerning the neuronal code are based on graded responses of neurons, given by the emitted number of spikes measured in a certain time window. Correspondingly, a large body of neural network theory deals with analogue neuron models and discusses their potential use for computation or function approximation. All physical signals, however, are of limited precision, and ...
متن کاملCortical Firing and Sleep Homeostasis
The need to sleep grows with the duration of wakefulness and dissipates with time spent asleep, a process called sleep homeostasis. What are the consequences of staying awake on brain cells, and why is sleep needed? Surprisingly, we do not know whether the firing of cortical neurons is affected by how long an animal has been awake or asleep. Here, we found that after sustained wakefulness corti...
