Abstract: | We developed a systematic and consistent mathematical approach to predicting 1:1 phase-locked modes in ring neural networks of spiking neurons based on the open loop spike time resetting curve (STRC) and its almost equivalent counterpart—the phase resetting curve (PRC). The open loop STRCs/PRCs were obtained by injecting into an isolated model neuron a triangular shaped time-dependent stimulus current closely resembling an actual synaptic input. Among other advantages, the STRC eliminates the confusion regarding the undefined phase for stimuli driving the neuron outside of the unperturbed limit cycle. We derived both open loop PRC and STRC-based existence and stability criteria for 1:1 phase-locked modes developed in ring networks of spiking neurons. Our predictions were in good agreement with the closed loop numerical simulations. Intuitive graphical methods for predicting phase-locked modes were also developed both for half-centers and for larger ring networks. |
