Parametric and non-parametric modeling of short-term synaptic plasticity. Part II: Experimental study.

We explored this question by examining the dynamics of a model central pattern generator that was created using an evolutionary algorithm. We propose an abstract description based on t...

abstract：:A population of uncoupled neurons can often be brought close to synchrony by a single strong inhibitory input pulse affecting all neurons equally. This mechanism is thought to underlie some brain rhythms, in particular gamma frequency (30-80 Hz) oscillations in the hippocampus and neocortex. Here we show that synchron...
