Structural phase transitions in neural networks

A model is considered for a neural network that is a stochasticprocess on a random graph. The neurons are represented by``integrate-and-fire" processes. The structure of the graph isdetermined by the probabilities of the connections, and it depends on theactivity in the network. The depende...

description A model is considered for a neural network that is a stochasticprocess on a random graph. The neurons are represented by``integrate-and-fire" processes. The structure of the graph isdetermined by the probabilities of the connections, and it depends on theactivity in the network. The dependence between theinitial level ofsparseness of the connections and thedynamics of activation in the network was investigated. A balanced regime was foundbetween activity, i.e., the level of excitation in the network, andinhibition, that allows formation of synfire chains.
