The Hodgkin-Huxley equations (HH) are parameterized by a number of parameters
and shows a variety of qualitatively different behaviors depending on the
parameter values. Under stimulation of an external periodic voltage, the
ISIs (interspike intervals) of a HH model are investigated in this work,
while the frequency of the voltage is taken as the controlling parameter.
As well-known, the science of acupuncture and moxibustion is an important
component of Traditional Chinese Medicine with a long history. Although there
are a number of different acupuncture manipulations, the method for
distinguishing them is rarely investigated. With the idea of ISI, we study
the electrical signal time series at the spinal dorsal horn produced by
three different acupuncture manipulations in Zusanli point and present an
effective way to distinguish them.
