Improving the Hodgkin-Huxley Models of Ionic Conductance and Action Potential Generation

This study presents improvements to the Hodgkin-Huxley (HH) models of ionic conductance and action potential generation. Sodium and potassium conductances are expressed by a single analytical formula describing the impulse response of a convolution of exponential distributions within a short-memory integration space. Treating transmembrane ion transit duration as a random variable, conductance profiles are interpreted as realizations of the probability density functions governing ionic movements. Applying the central limit theorem, the lognormal distribution emerges as the asymptotic profile of ionic conductances, constituting a fundamental primitive for such biosignals. A temporal state-transition paradigm describes the action potential waveform through four successive membrane potential transitions. Applied to electrophysiological recordings from lamprey reticulospinal neurons, this framework enables indirect estimation of key physiological quantities, including depolarization threshold, Nernst potentials, and net ion fluxes across the membrane. These advances open new perspectives for parameter estimation from experimental data and neuronal network simulation.

"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.
