A Thalamocortical Neural Mass Model of the EEG during NREM Sleep and Its Response to Auditory Stimulation
Fig 1
Connectivity of the thalamocortical model.
Excitatory synapses are depicted by filled circles, inhibitory synapses by bars. Independent background noise entering the different populations is denoted by ϕn, and
, respectively. Stimulation is applied as an elevation in the mean of the background noise
of the thalamic relay population.
