Figure 8. The main results based on class I neuron are extendable to spiking neurons with class II and III excitabilities.
(A,B) Simulations of the postsynaptic neuron with class II excitability (A) and with class III excitability (B). In (A1,B1), the CVISI value is plotted as a function of the input rate fin under different autaptic coupling conditions. In (A2,A3), we show the burst frequency and burst size of the class II postsynaptic neuron driven by fin = 8 Hz presynaptic trains. Similarly, the burst frequency and burst size of the class III postsynaptic neuron driven by fin = 16 Hz presynaptic trains are illustrated in (B2,B3). For the class II postsynaptic neuron, we set Waut = 0.05 mS/cm2 for the PCE model, Waut = 0.3 mS/cm2 for the PCI model and Waut = 0.3 mS/cm2 for the PEA model. For the class III postsynaptic neuron, we set Waut = 0.05 mS/cm2 for the PCE model, Waut = 0.3 mS/cm2 for the PCI model and Waut = 0.5 mS/cm2 for the PEA model.
