Dynamics of a FitzHugh-Nagumo system subjected to autocorrelated noise
2008
We analyze the dynamics of the FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) model in the presence of colored noise and a periodic signal. Two cases are considered: (i) the dynamics of the membrane potential is affected by the noise, (ii) the slow dynamics of the recovery variable is subject to noise. We investigate the role of the colored noise on the neuron dynamics by the mean response time (MRT) of the neuron. We find meaningful modifications of the resonant activation (RA) and noise enhanced stability (NES) phenomena due to the correlation time of the noise. For strongly correlated noise we observe suppression of NES effect and persistence of RA phenomenon, with an efficiency enhancement of the neuronal respo…
Analog simulation of neural information propagation using an electrical FitzHugh-Nagumo lattice
2004
International audience; A nonlinear electrical lattice modelling neural information propagation is presented. It is shown that our system is an analog simulator of the FitzHugh-Nagumo equations, and hence supports pulse propagation with the appropriate properties.
Experimental study of bifurcations in modified FitzHugh-Nagumo cell
2003
A nonlinear electrical circuit is proposed as a basic cell for modelling the FitzHugh-Nagumo equation with a modified excitability. Depending on initial conditions and parameters, experiments show various dynamics including stability with excitation threshold, bistability and oscillations.
Ghost stochastic resonance in FitzHugh–Nagumo circuit
2014
International audience; The response of a neural circuit submitted to a bi-chromatic stimulus and corrupted by noise is investigated. In the presence of noise, when the spike firing of the circuit is analysed, a frequency not present at the circuit input appears. For a given range of noise intensities, it is shown that this ghost frequency is almost exclusively present in the interspike interval distribution. This phenomenon is for the first time shown experimentally in a FitzHugh-Nagumo circuit.
