Noise shaping by interval correlations increases information transfer.
The influence of intrinsic firing interspike interval correlations on the noise spectrum and information transfer is studied. This is done through the comparison of two simple firing models, one of which is a renewal process while the other displays interval correlations. These correlations are shown to shape the spike train power spectrum and, in particular, to decrease the noise power at low ...
متن کاملIsi Correlations and Information Transfer
Neurons produce action potentials or spikes in response to a wide variety of inputs. Correlations between interspike intervals are often seen in data from single neurons, and are due to a combination of intrinsic mechanisms and the temporal properties of the input stimulus. Here we review recent progress in our understanding of how intrinsic correlations arise in simple biophysically justified ...
متن کاملOrigin of information-limiting noise correlations.
The ability to discriminate between similar sensory stimuli relies on the amount of information encoded in sensory neuronal populations. Such information can be substantially reduced by correlated trial-to-trial variability. Noise correlations have been measured across a wide range of areas in the brain, but their origin is still far from clear. Here we show analytically and with simulations th...
متن کاملNonlinear transfer of signal and noise correlations in cortical networks.
Signal and noise correlations, a prominent feature of cortical activity, reflect the structure and function of networks during sensory processing. However, in addition to reflecting network properties, correlations are also shaped by intrinsic neuronal mechanisms. Here we show that spike threshold transforms correlations by creating nonlinear interactions between signal and noise inputs; even w...
متن کاملNoise enhances information transfer in hierarchical networks
We study the influence of noise on information transmission in the form of packages shipped between nodes of hierarchical networks. Numerical simulations are performed for artificial tree networks, scale-free Ravasz-Barabási networks as well for a real network formed by email addresses of former Enron employees. Two types of noise are considered. One is related to packet dynamics and is respons...
