A Population Study of Integrate-and-Fire-or-Burst Neurons

Abstract

Any realistic model of the neuronal pathway from the retina to the visual cortex (V1) must account for the burstingbehavior of neurons in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN). A robust but minimal model, the integrate- and-fire-or-burst (IFB) model, has recently been proposed for individual LGN neurons. Based on this, we derive a dynamic population model and study a population of such LGN cells. This population model, the first simulation of its kind evolving in a two-dimensional phase space, is used to study the behavior of bursting populations in response to diverse stimulus conditions.
