Effect of spontaneous activity on stimulus detection in a simple neuronal model
A model based rule for selecting spiking thresholds in neuron models
1. | Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, Universitetsparken 5, Copenhagen, 2100, Denmark |
  In this paper a technique for finding excitability thresholds, based on the local behaviour of the flow in dynamical systems, is presented. The technique incorporates the dynamics of the auxiliary variables, yet only produces thresholds for the membrane potential. The method is applied to several classical neuron models and the threshold's dependence upon external parameters is studied, along with a general evaluation of the technique.
