Neuronal population model of globular bushy cells covering unit-to-unit variability

Simulated frequency response areas (FRAs).
A: FRA of the AN model. B: FRA of the default GBC model (see Table 1 for the parameter values used). CF of both models was fixed to 3500 Hz. The level and frequency of the stimulus tone were varied and the resulting spiking rates of the models were calculated and plotted in color. In both panels, the same color code was used for the range of 60–220 (spikes/sec) to facilitate comparisons. White curves show the estimated rate-level threshold at each frequency, defined as the sound pressure level at which the spiking rate was 10 (spike/sec) higher than the spontaneous rate.
