چکیده

Intermodulation and harmonics are important in frequency analysis of nonlinear systems. In neuron research, most investigations are taken in studying synchronization between the external stimuli and the output of neuron, but harmonics and intermodulation are often ignored. In this paper, harmonics and intermodulation of the subthreshold FitzHugh-Nagumo neuron are investigated and their magnitudes are used to predict frequency response of the neuron. Furthermore, through analyzing the magnitudes of harmonics, the intrinsic frequencies of the neuron could be identified.

Subthreshold signal encoding in coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo neurons

Despite intensive research, the mechanisms underlying how neurons encode external inputs remain poorly understood. Recent work has focused on the response of a single neuron to a weak, subthreshold periodic signal. By simulating the FitzHugh-Nagumo stochastic model and then using a symbolic method to analyze the firing activity of the neuron, preferred and infrequent spike patterns (defined by ...

An improved pseudospectral approximation of generalized Burger-Huxley and Fitzhugh-Nagumo equations

In this research paper, an improved Chebyshev-Gauss-Lobatto pseudospectral approximation of nonlinear Burger-Huxley and Fitzhugh- Nagumo equations have been presented. The method employs chebyshev Gauss-Labatto points in time and space to obtain spectral accuracy. The mapping has introduced and transformed the initial-boundary value non-homogeneous problem to homogeneous problem. The main probl...

Robust control of chaos in modified FitzHugh-Nagumo neuron model under external electrical stimulation based on internal model principle

This paper treats the question of robust control of chaos in modified FitzHugh–Nagumo neuron model under external electrical stimulation based on internal model principle. We first present the solution of the global robust output regulation problem for output feedback system with nonlinear exosystem. Then we show that the robust control problem for the modified FitzHugh–Nagumo neuron model can ...

Highly synchronized noise-driven oscillatory behavior of a FitzHugh–Nagumo ring with phase-repulsive coupling

We investigate a ring of N FitzHugh–Nagumo elements coupled in phase-repulsive fashion and submitted to a (subthreshold) common oscillatory signal and independent Gaussian white noises. This system can be regarded as a reduced version of the one studied in [Phys. Rev. E 64, 041912 (2001)], although externally forced and submitted to noise. The noise-sustained synchronization of the system with ...

Stochastic resonance in noisy spiking retinal and sensory neuron models

Two new theorems show that small amounts of additive white noise can improve the bit count or mutual information of several popular models of spiking retinal neurons and spiking sensory neurons. The first theorem gives necessary and sufficient conditions for this noise benefit or stochastic resonance (SR) effect for subthreshold signals in a standard family of Poisson spiking models of retinal ...
