ZILANY2014_SYNAPSE - Auditory nerve (AN) synapse model

Program code:

function [ANresp,var_rate,psth] = zilany2014_synapse(vihc,fc,nrep,tdres,fiberType,noiseType,implnt)
%ZILANY2014_SYNAPSE Auditory nerve (AN) synapse model
%   Usage: [ANresp,var_rate, psth] = zilany2014_synapse(vihc,fc,nrep,tdres,fiberType,noiseType,implnt);
%
%   Input parameters:
%     vihc       : Output from inner hair cells (IHCs) in Volts
%     fc         : Center frequencies (Hz)
%     nrep       : Number of repetitions for the mean rate, rate variance 
%                   & psth calculation. Default is 1.
%     tdres      : simulation time resolution, fs_mod^(-1)
%     fiberType  : Type of the fiber based on spontaneous rate (SR) in spikes/s
%                  1: Low SR; 2: Medium SR (default); 3: High SR.
%     noiseType  : Fractional Gaussian noise will be different in every
%                  simulation (1), or will be always the same (0, default)
%     implnt     : 0...Use approxiate implementation of the power-law (default). 
%                  1...Use actual implementation of the power-law functions.
%
%   Output parameters:
%     ANresp     : AN response in terms of the estimated instantaneous mean 
%                  spiking rate (incl. refractoriness) in nf different AN 
%                  fibers spaced equally on the BM
%     var_rate   : var rate
%     psth       : Spike histogram
%
%   Description:
%     ZILANY2014_SYNAPSE returns modeled responses of one AN fibers to 
%     a specific inner haircell potential.
