The phrase "active neuron" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to neuroscience, biology, or discussions about brain function, particularly when referring to neurons that are currently firing or transmitting signals.
Example: "In the study of brain activity, researchers observed that the active neuron was responsible for processing sensory information."
Alternatives: "firing neuron" or "functioning neuron".
During this activity, the currently active neuron inhibits the activity of the next neuron in the ring while the third neuron recovers from previous inhibition.
A critical branching process is a process such that one active node will activate on average one other node at the next time step and so one can discern how this would relate to neuronal systems whereby the system is critical if one active neuron on average activates one other neuron at the next time step.
The activity-dependent weight addition tends to correlate the active neuron with its input; activity-dependent weight subtraction among neurons tends to decorrelate the active neuron from all the other neurons.
Each active neuron transforms input signals using activation function which is usually sigmoidal function.
Neural activity is encoded by spikes, where the address of an active neuron is communicated through an asynchronous request and acknowledgement cycle.
For example, in a Jeffress-like model, changes in the sound (e.g., level, background noise) results in changes in the activity of all neurons, but the identity of the most active neuron does not change (a theoretical argument made in Brette, 2010).
Signals obtained by recording voltage changes occurring on skull surface as a result of electrical activity of active neurons in the brain are called EEG [3].
SCN neurons are spontaneously active neurons with peak activity during the day.
Manganese, an activity-dependent contrast agent, accumulates in active neurons through, for example, voltage-gated calcium channels.
We identified the phasically active neurons by their low baseline activity (1 3 Hz).
At steady state), the auditory activation was characterized by an elongated strip of strongly active neurons close to 100° and a broad area of less active neurons left of 90°.
