On a spike train probability model with interacting neural units
We investigate an extension of the spike train stochastic model based on the conditionalintensity, in which the recovery function includes an interaction between several excitatoryneural units.

Summary: | We investigate an extension of the spike train stochastic model based on the conditionalintensity, in which the recovery function includes an interaction between several excitatoryneural units. Such function is proposed as depending both on the time elapsed since thelast spike and on the last spiking unit. Our approach, being somewhat related to thecompeting risks model, allows to obtain the general form of the interspike distribution andof the probability of consecutive spikes from the same unit. Various results are finally presentedin the two cases when the free firing rate function (i) is constant, and (ii) has a sinusoidal form. |
