Correlation measures are important tools for the analysis of simultaneously recorded spike trains. A well-known measure with probabilistic interpretation is the cross-intensity function (CIF), which is an estimate of the conditional probability that a neuron spikes as a function of the time lag to spikes in another neuron. The non-commutative nature of the CIF is particularly useful when different...
Abstract.The recent quantitative description of activity-dependent depression in the synaptic transmission between cortical neurons has lead to many interesting suggestions of possible computational implications. Based on a simple biological model, we have constructed an analog circuit that emulates the properties of short-term depressing synapses. The circuit comprises only seven transistors and...
