BRUCE2018_SYNAPSE - synapse model proposed by Bruce et al. (2018)

Usage

[psth, meanrate, varrate, synout, trd_vector, trel_vector] = bruce2018_synapse(vihc, fc, nrep, dt, noisetype, implnt, spont, tabs, trel)

Input parameters

vihc the inner hair cell (IHC) relative transmembrane potential [V]
fc vector of center frequencies [Hz]
nrep number of stimulus repetitions (about 10 - 200)
dt discrete time distance, 1/sampling frequency, needs to be either 100, 200, or 500 kHz
noiseType "variable" or "fixed (frozen)" fGn: 1 for variable fGn and 0 for fixed (frozen) fGn
implnt "approxiate" or "actual" implementation of the power-law functions: "0" for approx. and "1" for actual implementation
spont nerve fibres
tabs absolute timing info
trel relative timing info

Output parameters

psth the peri-stimulus time histogram (PSTH) (or a spike train if nrep = 1)
meanrate mean spiking rate
varrate variable spiking rate
synout synapse output
trd_vector refractory period
trel_vector relative refractory period

Description

bruce2018_synapse calculates the output of the synapse model by Bruce et al. (2018) and several associated parameters
