The threshold of the cockroach tactile neuron increases strongly with depolarization by a process involving at least two time constants. This effect is probably responsible for the rapid and complete adaptation of the neuron's response to step inputs. A technique for intracellular recording and stim

Neuronal mode analysis is a recently developed technique for modelling the behavior of nonlinear systems whose outputs consist of action potentials. The system is modelled as a set of parallel linear filters, or modes, which feed into a multi-input threshold. The characteristics of the principal mod
In a previously reported study (Berger et al. 1990) we analyzed distributions of interspike intervals recorded extracellularly from cat visual cortex under four stimulus conditions. Stimuli were gratings differing in orientation and spatial frequency. The probability density function of first passag
