Input-output functions for the BLIF neuron (A) and a cat ANF (Shepherd and Javel, 1999; B), both stimulated with a cathodic-anodic biphasic stimulus of 100 μs/phase duration at various IPGs (dotted line: 200 μs; dash-dotted line: 80 μs; dashed line: 20 μs; solid line: 0 μs). The means of the input-output functions of the cat ANF are well predicted by the BLIF neuron (see Figure 10A), although the slopes are steeper in the BLIF neuron than in the cat ANF (see Figure 10B). Stimulus levels are given in decibels relative to the threshold of a 100 μs duration monophasic stimulus (the threshold for the ANF is projected from the available data; see Figure 10A).
