Computational models for state-dependent traveling waves in hippocampal formation

Show abstract
Hippocampal theta (4-10 Hz) oscillations have been identified as traveling waves in both rodents and humans. In freely foraging rodents, the theta traveling wave is a planar wave propagating from the dorsal to ventral hippocampus along the septotemporal axis. Motivated from experimental findings, we develop a spiking neural network of excitatory and inhibitory neurons to generate state-dependent hippocampal traveling waves to improve current mechanistic understanding of propagating waves. Model simulations demonstrate the necessary conditions for generating wave propagation and characterize the traveling wave properties with respect to model parameters, running speed and brain state of the animal. Networks with long-range inhibitory connections are more suitable than networks with long-range excitatory connections. We further generalize the spiking neural network to model traveling waves in the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) and predict that traveling theta waves in the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex are in sink.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
