Noise Suppression and Surplus Synchrony by Coincidence Detection
Figure 6
Approximation of the output synchrony in the limit of high input correlation.
A Output spike synchrony as a function of input correlation in the limit of high input correlation and strong synchrony . Data points and solid lines show results from simulations and theoretical approximation (11), respectively. Gray code corresponds to the four different mean membrane potential values
as depicted in B, the input firing rate

at the four working points. Dashed curves in A and B indicate
