Threshold-Linear Networks as a Ground-Zero Theory for Spiking Models
Stefano Masserini, Richard Kempter · Bernstein Conference 2024
Interactions between spiking units grouped in distinct excitatory (E) and inhibitory (I) populations can result in a complex dynamical landscape. Part of this complexity, namely dynamics that depend on undelayed connectivities and external inputs, is retained by a simplified model, the threshold-linear network (TLN), which allows to derive fully analytical conditions for the emergence of multistability [1], paradoxical perturbation effects [2,3], and some oscillations [4,5]. These results, however, have only been applied to specific architectures, such as canonical circuits or all-inhibitory n
