Each orientation is represented by a pair of neurons, one excitable and one mellow neuron. Only a few connections coming from the outlined neuron are shown. Inhibitory connections terminate in a bar and excitatory connections terminate in a prong.https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/om_resp_var_3trials_single_plot.pngom_resp_var_3trials_single_plotFig. 10: Variability in network neuron responses. The spike rasters from the network are color coded for each stimulus presentation. The stimulus was identical across trials but preceded by a different randomized stimulus sequence. Individual neuron rasters are organized horizontally so that each line represents the spikes from a given neuron.https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/om_trans_funcs_2lev_200nn_excitable_mellow_overlay_curves.pngom_trans_funcs_2lev_200nn_excitable_mellow_overlay_curvesFig. 8: Tuning curves. The excitable neurons have broader tuning curves (light green) than the mellow neurons (dark blue).https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/om_trans_funcs_2lev_200nn_pre_post_adapt_overlay_curves.pngom_trans_funcs_2lev_200nn_pre_post_adapt_overlay_curvesFig. 9: Tuning curves change after adaptation. Tuning curves for early responses as shown in Fig. 8 are in grey. After adaptation, the tuning curves are suppressed for the excitable neurons (left, light green), but facilitated for the mellow neurons (right, dark blue).https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/sm_6j_currents_bilat_vs_balanced_dec_err.pngsm_6j_currents_bilat_vs_balanced_dec_errFig. 6: E/I balanced currents reduce error. Left, excitatory and inhibitory currents impinging on an example neuron in response to three different stimulus presentations. The neuron in the top plot belongs to a network with random recurrent connections that are not E/I balanced. In the bottom plot, that neuron is part of an E/I balanced network. Right, the representation error for the unbalanced network (grey) is higher than for the balanced network (black).https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/sm_adapt_pulse_10nn_legends.pngsm_adapt_pulse_10nn_legendsFig. 5: Network response to a stimulus pulse. Neurons fire (top, raster) in response to the stimulus (arrows indicate stimulus ON and OFF). The most excitable neurons fire first (light green) and the mellower neurons pitch in later (dark blue). Despite time-varying activity in the individual neurons, the network output (orange) tracks the target signal (grey).https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/sm_adapt_no_recurr_weight_traces_and_ifiplot_v2.pngsm_adapt_no_recurr_weight_traces_and_ifiplot_v2Fig. 4: Heterogeneoushttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/network_schematic_spikingmodel_small_to_big.pngnetwork_schematic_spikingmodel_small_to_bigFig. 3: Derived networkhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/sm_adapt_single_trace_thresh.pngsm_adapt_single_trace_threshFig. 2: Spike-frequency adaptationhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/response_stim_distribution.pngresponse_stim_distributionFig. 1: Adaptation shifts response probability distribution.2019-10-08T08:40:15+00:00monthlyhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/2016/09/26/advice-for-girls/https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/gemstone_gold.pnggemstone_goldhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/gemstone_pink.pnggemstone_pinkhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/gemstone_green.pnggemstone_greenhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/gemstone_aqua.pnggemstone_aqua2019-09-17T20:45:01+00:00monthlyhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/2019/09/17/applying-for-a-career-transition-k-award-from-the-nih/2019-09-18T05:38:27+00:00monthlyhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/2019/05/22/how-to-go-about-reproducing-a-conductance-based-model-and-troubleshooting-it/https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/units_dont_check_out.pngunits_dont_check_out2019-05-22T23:21:31+00:00monthlyhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/2016/04/21/how-to-build-a-spiking-predictive-coding-model/2019-01-04T03:27:28+00:00monthlyhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/2018/02/21/you-cant-be-what-you-cant-see/https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/snapcodebitmoji.pngsnapcodeBitmojihttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/snapcode.pngSnapcode2018-02-20T08:28:01+00:00monthlyhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/2016/09/12/about-biaswatchneuro/2016-09-13T21:43:43+00:00monthlyhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/2016/08/27/hello-world-im-a-girl-who-codes/https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/img_1099_blurred_names.jpgIMG_1099_blurred_nameshttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/img_5630.jpgIMG_5630https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/img_5628.jpgIMG_56282016-08-27T02:01:24+00:00monthlyhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/2016/07/13/perfect-pitch/https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/perfectpitchslide_ggutierrez.pngPerfectPitchSlide_ggutierrez2016-07-14T19:03:54+00:00monthlyhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.com/blog-posts/2016-04-21T01:46:16+00:00weekly0.6https://gabriellejgutierrez.com/2016/02/12/good-news/2016-02-12T23:41:48+00:00monthlyhttps://gabriellejgutierrez.comdaily1.02025-11-07T18:08:47+00:00
