Figure 3. Role of delay in stimulus dependent collective dynamics.

Panels of input current, raster plots and firing rate time trace depicted as in the previous Fig. 2. In the networks with instantaneous connections change in input only changes the firing rate and not the state of the network (A), while in a network with delayed connections the change in the input level changes the collective dynamics from asynchrony to synchrony and vice versa (B). For more details Supplementary Fig. S2 is available.
