Abstract:Neuronal processing is inherently nonlinear — spiking thresholds or rectification in synapses are central to neuronal computations. Nevertheless, linear response theory has been instrumental in understanding, for example, the impact of noise or synchronous spikes on signal transmission, or the emergence of oscillatory activity. At higher signal-to-noise ratios, however, the third term in the Volterra series becomes relevant. This second-order susceptibility captures nonlinear interactions between pairs of stim… Show more
