| Data-driven, HH-type model of the lateral pyloric (LP) cell in the STG (Nowotny et al. 2008) | |
| This model was developed using voltage clamp data and existing LP models to assemble an initial set of currents which were then adjusted by extensive fitting to a long data set of an isolated LP neuron. The main points of the work are a) automatic fitting is difficult but works when the method is carefully adjusted to the problem (and the initial guess is good enough). b) The resulting model (in this case) made reasonable predictions for manipulations not included in the original data set, e.g., blocking some of the ionic currents. c) The model is reasonably robust against changes in parameters but the different parameters vary a lot in this respect. d) The model is suitable for use in a network and has been used for this purpose (Ivanchenko et al. 2008) | |
| Nodose sensory neuron (Schild et al. 1994, Schild and Kunze 1997) | |
| This is a simulink implementation of the model described in Schild et al. 1994, and Schild and Kunze 1997 papers on Nodose sensory neurons. These papers describe the sensitivity these models have to their parameters and the match of the models to experimental data. | |
| Parameter estimation for Hodgkin-Huxley based models of cortical neurons (Lepora et al. 2011) | |
| Simulation and fitting of two-compartment (active soma, passive dendrite) for different classes of cortical neurons. The fitting technique indirectly matches neuronal currents derived from somatic membrane potential data rather than fitting the voltage traces directly. The method uses an analytic solution for the somatic ion channel maximal conductances given approximate models of the channel kinetics, membrane dynamics and dendrite. This approach is tested on model-derived data for various cortical neurons. | |
| Parametric computation and persistent gamma in a cortical model (Chambers et al. 2012) | |
| Using the Traub et al (2005) model of the cortex we determined how 33 synaptic strength parameters control gamma oscillations. We used fractional factorial design to reduce the number of runs required to 4096. We found an expected multiplicative interaction between parameters. | |
| Phase oscillator models for lamprey central pattern generators (Varkonyi et al. 2008) | |
| In our paper, Varkonyi et al. 2008, we derive phase oscillator models for the lamprey central pattern generator from two biophysically based segmental models. We study intersegmental coordination and show how these models can provide stable intersegmental phase lags observed in real animals. | |
