Spatio-temporal patterns of network activity in the inferior olive
We have built several networks of inferior olive (IO) model neurons to study the emerging spatio-temporal patterns of neuronal activity. The degree and extent of the electrical coupling, and the presence of stimuli were the main factors considered in the IO networks. The network activity was analyzed using a discrete wavelet transform which provides a quantitative characterization of the spatio-temporal patterns. This study reveals the ability of these networks to generate characteristic spatio-temporal patterns which can be essential for the function of the IO.
