Title
Mechanistic modeling of the retinogeniculate circuit in cat
Abstract
An early version of a biologically realistic spike-based model for the X-on pathway of the retinogeniculate circuit is presented. The model comprises feed-forward retinal connections to the lateral geniculate nucleus as well as intrageniculate inhibitory actions from dendro-dendritic structures (triads) and axonal output of interneurons. Neurons are modeled as leaky integrate-and-fire-or-burst neurons. A network model comprising some 100 neurons was implemented using the SYNOD neural network simulator and tested with circular-spot stimuli. Our example simulations were able to reproduce corresponding experimental data. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
