Chaos-induced modulation of reliability boosts output firing rate in downstream cortical areas.
The reproducibility of neural spike train responses to an identical stimulus across different presentations (trials) has been studied extensively. Reliability, the degree of reproducibility of spike trains, was found to depend in part on the amplitude and frequency content of the stimulus [J. Hunter and J. Milton, J. Neurophysiol. 90, 387 (2003)]. The responses across different trials can somet...
متن کاملModulation of firing rate by background synaptic noise statistics in rat visual cortical neurons.
It has been shown previously that background synaptic noise modulates the response gain of neocortical neurons. However, the role of the statistical properties of the noise in modulating firing rate is not known. Here, the dependence of firing rate on the statistical properties of the excitatory to inhibitory balance (EI) in cortical pyramidal neurons was studied. Excitatory glutamatergic and i...
متن کاملAttentional modulation of firing rate and synchrony in a model cortical network: a critical analysis
Attention plays an important role in helping us to make sense of our environment. By selectively attending to behaviourally relevant features we can improve the sensitivity of our perception of these features, at the expense of a reduction in the sensitivity for other features. Directing attention towards a visual stimulus has been shown to increase the firing rate of V4 neurons by increasing t...

متن کاملDifference in visual motion representation between cortical areas MT and MST during ocular following responses.
The middle temporal (MT) and medial superior temporal (MST) areas are successive stations of the visual motion-processing stream and project in parallel to the pontine nucleus, which is closely associated with rapid stabilization of gaze. We recorded the neural activities of MT and MST neurons of monkeys during short-latency ocular following responses (OFRs) elicited by large-field sinusoidal g...
