Stochastic resonance in a globally coupled neuronal network has been studied via numerical simulation. The ability of the network to detect a weak (subthreshold) periodic signal can be optimized t o a high signal-to-noise ratio with a long plateau as the noise intensity increases. This may interpret the strong ability of neurons to process information in biological system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
