Recovery of Stimuli Encoded with Hodgkin-Huxley Neurons
نویسنده
چکیده
In the reverse correlation method [1] to neural encoding, the neural system is treated as a black box and both the input stimuli and output spike trains are assumed to be observable. Based on the correlation between the input and the output, the black box is identified as the kernel of a Wiener filter. When investigating problems arising in olfactory coding, an explicit characterization of odor stimuli is, however, not available. In addition, sensory systems are exposed to unknown stimuli in real-time. Under these conditions, investigations of sensory encoding of natural stimuli assume that only the spike train is observable and the neural system can be described as a non-linear dynamical system. The Hodgkin-Huxley neuron is the model of choice.

Population encoding with Hodgkin-Huxley neurons
The recovery of (weak) stimuli encoded with a population of Hodgkin-Huxley neurons is investigated. In the absence of a stimulus, the Hodgkin-Huxley neurons are assumed to be tonically spiking. The methodology employed calls for 1) finding an input-output (I/O) equivalent description of the Hodgkin-Huxley neuron and 2) devising a recovery algorithm for stimuli encoded with the I/O equivalent ne...

In this paper, α and β parameters and gating variables equations of Hodgkin-Huxley neuron cell have been studied. Gating variables show opening and closing rate of ion flow of calcium and potassium in neuron cell. Variable functions α and β, are exponential functions in terms of u potential that have been obtained by Hodgkin and Huxley experimentally to adjust the equations of neural cells. In ...
متن کاملDecomposing the Dynamics of Delayed Hodgkin-Huxley Neurons
The effects of time delays on the nonlinear dynamics of neural networks are investigated. A decomposition method is utilized to derive modal equations that allow one to analyze the dynamics around synchronous states. The D-subdivision method is used to study the stability of equilibria while the stability of periodic orbits is investigated using Floquet theory. These methods are applied to a sy...
متن کاملInformation representation with an ensemble of Hodgkin-Huxley neurons
Motivated by the natural representation of stimuli in sensory systems, we investigate the representation of a bandlimited signal by an ensemble of Hodgkin–Huxley neurons with multiplicative coupling. We show that such a neuronal ensemble is I/O equivalent with an ensemble of integrate-and-fire neurons with variable threshold. The value of the threshold sequence is explicitly given. We describe ...
متن کاملSingle input optimal control for globally coupled neuron networks.
We consider the problem of desynchronizing a network of synchronized, globally (all-to-all) coupled neurons using an input to a single neuron. This is done by applying the discrete time dynamic programming method to reduced phase models for neural populations. This technique numerically minimizes a certain cost function over the whole state space, and is applied to a Kuramoto model and a reduce...
