Selectivity and Metaplasticity in a Unified Calcium-Dependent Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
A unified, biophysically motivated Calcium-Dependent Learning model has been shown to account for various rate-based and spike time-dependent paradigms for inducing synaptic plasticity. Here, we investigate the properties of this model for a multi-synapse neuron that receives inputs with different spike-train statistics. In addition, we present a physiological form of metaplasticity, an activity-driven regulation mechanism, that is essential for the robustness of the model. A neuron thus implemented develops stable and selective receptive fields, given various input statistics

Metaplasticity and the Unified Calcium Model lead to input selectivity in spiking neurons
Intracellular calcium concentration has been proposed as the key associative signal for the Hebbian synaptic plasticity. The Unified Calcium Model has been able to account for various plasticityinduction protocols, such as rate-based and spike time-dependent plasticity. Here, we investigate the properties of this model in a multi-synapse neuron receiving inputs with different spatiotemporal spi...
متن کاملSynaptic homeostasis and input selectivity follow from a calcium-dependent plasticity model.
Modifications in the strengths of synapses are thought to underlie memory, learning, and development of cortical circuits. Many cellular mechanisms of synaptic plasticity have been investigated in which differential elevations of postsynaptic calcium concentrations play a key role in determining the direction and magnitude of synaptic changes. We have previously described a model of plasticity ...
متن کاملA biophysical model of bidirectional synaptic plasticity: dependence on AMPA and NMDA receptors.
In many regions of the brain, including the mammalian cortex, the magnitude and direction of activity-dependent changes in synaptic strength depend on the frequency of presynaptic stimulation (synaptic plasticity), as well as the history of activity at those synapses (metaplasticity). We present a model of a molecular mechanism of bidirectional synaptic plasticity based on the observation that ...
متن کاملCyclic Behavior of Beams Based on the Chaboche Unified Viscoplastic Model
In this paper, ratcheting behavior of beams subjected to mechanical cyclic loads at elevated temperature, using the rate dependent Chaboche unified viscoplastic model with combined kinematic and isotropic hardening theory of plasticity, is investigated. A precise and general numerical scheme, using the incremental method of solution, is developed to obtain the cyclic inelastic creep and plastic...
متن کاملSize-dependent Kinetics Determination of MoS2-K2O/CNTS Nanocatalyst in the Synthesis of Alcohols from Syngas
The influence of Mo particle size on the catalytic activity and product selectivity of alkalized MoS2 nanocatalysts has been investigated. Nanocatalysts are prepared using a microemulsion technique with water-to-surfactant ratios of 1-12. Three different techniques, including XRD, TEM, and hydrogen chemisorption were used to determine the molybdenum average particle size and their activity and ...
