A review of the methods for signal estimation in stochastic diffusion leaky integrate-and-fire neuronal models.

abstract：:This paper describes how a synergy made up of a pair of agonist and antagonist systems involved in the production of a rapid movement can control movement time. A quadratic law is derived to predict the movement time as a function of the various parameters describing the neuromuscular synergy. Conditions for a simplif...
