Combined mechanisms of neural firing rate homeostasis
Abstract
Spikes in the membrane potential of neurons comprise the currency of information processing in the brain. The ability of neurons to convert any information present across their multiple inputs into a significant modification to the pattern of their emitted spikes depends on the rate at which they emit spikes. If the mean rate is near the neuron’s maximum, or if the rate is near zero, then changes in the inputs have minimal impact on the …
