Cellularly-Driven Differences in Network Synchronization Propensity Are Differentially Modulated by Firing Frequency
Figure 4
Differential effects of frequency modulation on Morris-Lecar network synchronization.
Measures of network activity for simulations of large-scale (N = 200) excitatory networks of Morris-Lecar model neurons driven with various constant applied currents (different curves) for Type I (A,C,E) and Type II (B,D,F) cells. The synaptic coupling was set to for Types I and II. (A,B) Average network firing frequency as a function of the network re-wiring parameter. (C,D) Phase-zero synchronization (as quantified by the bursting measure) versus the re-wiring parameter. (E,F) Phase locking (as measured by mean phase coherence) as a function of the re-wiring parameter.
