A comprehensive investigation of intracortical and corticothalamic models of the alpha rhythm
Fig 7
RRW model topography, schematic, numerical and analytical mathematical expression, and alpha simulation results.
(A) Three main populations are broadly described: the cortex (composed of excitatory and inhibitory neurons) and two thalamic populations (reticular nucleus and relay nuclei). Delays are included to take into account long range connections from the cortex to the thalamus. (B) Numerical mathematical expression for each neural population; Numerical mathematical expression for each neural population. (C) Simulation outputs of the model with standard parameters (time series, power spectrum estimated from the time series.
