Sentence examples for neuron fire from inspiring English sources

Such composite images and sudden scene changes, Dr. Domhoff conceded, may be the brain's effort to make sense of random neuron fire.

"The experiment is a good example of how noise lets a neuron fire in the company of a signal that it is normally unable to detect," Dr. Collins said.

Each neuron is a kind of microprocessor that connects two layers l and l + 1 through accepting a set of inputs from layer l, performing a weighted sum of all these inputs, and processing this weighted sum through an "activation function," which may be linear or nonlinear, and essentially makes this neuron "fire" when the input weighted sum is large enough.

In order to simplify the complexity of STPs in the present study, each neuron fire once without any background stochastic spiking activity.

To this end we propose a formal definition of History-Dependent Excitability (HDE) at any moment in time as the minimal synaptic strength <img src="http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article/asset?id=info?doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0015023.e010.PNG" class= inline-graphic"/> of an excitatory synaptic event that can make the neuron fire.

If the pulses are short, higher current intensities are required to make the neuron fire, and the first action potential is fired with a shorter delay after the pulse onset.

On the other hand, we demonstrated that fluctuations in single neuron firing, amount to a scale-invariant order in active neuronal groups, suggestive of critical dynamics guiding single neuron firing.

Then when a neuron fires its voltage signal, the nanodiamond would change colour and the signal recorded.

When a neuron fires, sodium ions stream into the cell.

After several incoming spikes, the membrane potential surpasses threshold and neuron fires a postsynaptic spike.

When membrane potential reaches the threshold, the neuron fires a spike at the instant t s.
