Enhanced Sensitivity to Rapid Input Fluctuations by Nonlinear Threshold Dynamics in Neocortical Pyramidal Neurons
The way in which single neurons transform input into output spike trains has fundamental consequences for network coding. Theories and modeling studies based on standard Integrate-and-Fire models implicitly assume that, in response to increasingly strong inputs, neurons modify their coding strategy by progressively reducing their selective sensitivity to rapid input fluctuations. Combining math...
متن کاملFiring Rate Adaptation without Losing Sensitivity to Input Fluctuations
Spike frequency adaptation is an important cellular mechanism by which neocortical neurons accommodate their responses to transient, as well as sustained, stimulations. This can be quantified by the slope reduction in the f-I curves due to adaptation. When the neuron is driven by a noisy, in vivo-like current, adaptation might also affect the sensitivity to the fluctuations of the input. We inv...
متن کاملHigh-sensitivity damage detection based on enhanced nonlinear dynamics*
One of the most important aspects of detecting damage in the framework of structural health monitoring is increasing the sensitivity of the monitored feature to the presence, location, and extent of damage. Distinct from previous techniques of obtaining information about the monitored structure—such as measuring frequency response functions—the approach proposed herein is based on an active int...
متن کاملChaotic Maps: Dynamics, Fractals, and Rapid Fluctuations
Pseudo-Riemannian geometry is, to a large extent, the study of the Levi-Civita connection, which is the unique torsion-free connection compatible with the metric structure. There are, however, other affine connections which arise in different contexts, such as conformal geometry, contact structures, Weyl structures, and almost Hermitian geometry. In this book, we reverse this point of view and ...
متن کاملBrain Dynamics Underlying the Nonlinear Threshold for Access to Consciousness
When a flashed stimulus is followed by a backward mask, subjects fail to perceive it unless the target-mask interval exceeds a threshold duration of about 50 ms. Models of conscious access postulate that this threshold is associated with the time needed to establish sustained activity in recurrent cortical loops, but the brain areas involved and their timing remain debated. We used high-density...
