Identifying properties of pattern completion neurons in a computational model of the visual cortex
Fig 2
Model stimulation ensemble responses are concordant with in vivo findings.
(A) Raster plot showing the firing patterns of the different neuron populations. Green dots represent evoked spikes from 30Hz stimulation of a single excitatory neuron for 250 ms. (B) Average firing rate of different neuron types during stimulation of 0 to 5 random excitatory neurons. Averages are over 20 trials (250 ms each). Error bars are mean ± standard deviation. *** indicates p < 0.001, n.s. indicates not significant. (C) Average change in membrane potential of excitatory neurons during stimulation of a single excitatory neuron. 35 neurons were individually stimulated for three 250 ms trials. The shaded region is the mean ± s.e.m of the change in membrane potential of all non-stimulated excitatory neurons in the network.
