Perspectives on Applications of a Stochastic Spiking Neuron Model to Neural Network Modeling
- 9. The stochas'c model • Vi(t): time dependent membrane potential of neuron i at time t for i = 1, …, N; • t: discrete time given by integer multiples of constant step Δ small enough to exclude possibility of a neuron firing more than once during each step; • Xi(t): number of times neuron i fired between t and t+1, namely 0 or 1; • If neuron fires between t and t+1, its potential drops to VR by time t+1; • wij: weight of synapse from neuron j to neuron i; • µ: decay factor (in the interval [0, 1]) due to leakage during time step Δ; • Xi(t) = 1 with probability Φ(Vi(t)); • Φ(V) is assumed to be monotonically increasing and saturating at some saturation potential VS.
- 10. Comment • If Φ(V) = Θ(V−Vth), i.e. 0 for V<Vth and 1 for V>Vth, the model becomes the determinis'c discrete-'me leaky integrate-and-fire model (LIF). • Any other choice of Φ(V) gives a stochas'c neuron Vs
- 13. Macroscopic quan''es • Poten'al distribu'on: frac'on of neurons with poten'al in the range (V, V + dV) at 'me t • Network ac'vity: frac'on of neurons that fired between t and t + 1
- 15. Mean-field analysis • Fully connected network: each neuron receives inputs from all other N − 1 neurons; • VR = 0; • Uniform constant external input: Ii(t) = I; • All weights are equal:
- 17. • The amplitude is the frac'on of neurons with “age” k: neurons that fired between t – k – 1 and t – k and did not fire between t – k and t • For this type of distribu'on de network ac'vity ρ(t) is:
- 19. Examples of Φ(V) Satura'ng monomial func'on of degree r Ra'onal func'on Γ = 1; VT = 0NB.: The determinis'c LIF model corresponds to the monomial func'on with S
- 21. • In the case with µ = 0, neurons “forget” all previous input signals, except those received at t – 1. • P(V, t) contains only two peaks at poten'als: V0(t) = 0 and V1(t) = I + Wρ(t − 1) • Taking into account the normaliza'on condi'on, the frac'ons η0(t) and η1(t) evolve as:
- 22. • Assuming that neurons cannot fire at rest, Φ(0) = 0: • In a stationary regime, the recurrence equations reduce to: • Since Φ(V) ≤ 1, any stationary regime must have ρ ≤ 1/2
