On large networks of integrate-and-fire neurons with short-term synaptic plasticity
Quentin Cormier, Eva Löcherbach, Valentin Schmutz
This work studies the mean-field limit of large networks of interacting stochastic leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) neurons subject to short-term synaptic depression (STD). The macro…

Dense networks of integrate-and-fire neurons: Spatially-extended mean-field limit of the empirical measure
Pierre-Emmanuel Jabin, Valentin Schmutz, Datong Zhou
The dynamics of spatially-structured networks of interacting stochastic neurons can be described by deterministic population equations in the mean-field limit. While this is kn…

Spikes can transmit neurons' subthreshold membrane potentials
Valentin Schmutz
Neurons primarily communicate through the emission of action potentials, or spikes. To generate a spike, a neuron's membrane potential must cross a defined threshold. Does this spi…
