PART 1:FITZHUGH-NAGUMO SPDE MODEL NEURON
• FN system is simpler than HH and has some similar properties – used also for heart dynamics and many other things eg EEG, Spreading depression
First objectives
• (1) determine effects of noise on transmission of solitary waves (action potentials)
• (2) compare properties of numerical solutions of spde with those analytically determined

INTRODUCTION TO STOCHASTIC PDES AS NEURON MODELS
• FOR NEURAL MODELING THE SIMPLEST SOMEWHAT REALISTIC MODEL OF A NEURON IS THE LIF (LEAKY INTEGRATE AND F IRE) MODEL
• (1) STEIN BIOPHYS J 1965
dV=-sdt + a_EdN_E – a_IdN_I
• (2) TUCKWELL J THEOR BIOL 1979
• dV=-sVdt + a_E(V_E-V)dN_E – a_I(V_I-V)dN_I
• HERE THE N’S ARE USUALLY POISSON PROCESSES.
• THESE MODELS ARE CALLED “LEAKY” BECAUSE BETWEEN INPUT EVENTS THE MEMBRANE POTENTIAL DECAYS TOWARDS RESTING LEVEL

• Because jumps lead to differential-difference or integral equations, the most studied forms of these models are the smoothed versions –diffusion approximations where the membrane potential is continuous and all relevant equations are differential equations. If reversal potentials are neglected this gives the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process (OUP)
• However, simulation is just as facile with the discontinuous models.

For the OUP the stochastic DE for subthreshold voltages is linear
dX=(m - aX)dt + sdW
where m is the mean input rate, a is the reciprocal of the time-constant (typically 3-30 msec), s is the standard deviation of the input and W is a standard Wiener process or BM (mean 0, variance t).

• Thus it is hard to construct an accurate electrophys iological model of a neuron without taking into account the sp atial extent of the cell.
• There are packages like GENESIS and NEURON, for trying t o incorporate the details of a neuron’s anatomy, but sys tematic analysis is a problem due to the large number of parame ters
• Problem 1.The main difficulty is the extensive branching of de ndrites.
• Problem 2.The other main difficulty is to have any idea of th e details in space-time of the synaptic inputs. It’s hard to see how these could be measured, except in really simple cases.
• The first problem has been overcome by various authors by simplifying the geometry.

Some of the first attempts with cylinders of various radii were for motoneurons Dodge & Cooley, IBM J. Res. Devel. 17 (1973) 219.; Traub, Biol Cyb 25, 163-167 (1977).
A similar approach was adopted for a rat barrel pyramid in Iannella, Tuckwell and Tanaka Math Biosci 188 (2004) 117–132. >>>>
In 1993 Bush and Sejnowski obtained a reduced P-cell model: Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 46 (1993) 159-166
![Page 16: EPSRC Workshop on Computational Neuroscience...significantly – see Tuckwell, Introduction to Theoretical Neurobiology volume 2 (CUP, 1988). • For recent analytical results for](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042321/5f0b1bc97e708231d42ee3ce/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

• However, under certain constraints on the branching pro perties, the potential over a dendritic tree can be mapped ont o that of an “equivalent cylinder” (Rall, 1968; Walsh & Tuckwell, 1985)
• This means that one can get some insight into spati al effects using a neuron model with one time and one space di mension –that is a “cable”, which may be linear or nonlinear.

• The spatial LIF models corresponding to an OUP mode l are linear cable equations + threshold conditions with a Gaussian white noise or Poisson stimuli.
• Case (1) at a single point 0<x<L, W is a 1-paramete r Wiener process.
• - see Wan & Tuckwell, Biol Cyb 33, 39-55 (1979)
Case (2) distributed where W is a 2-parameter WP. Here alpha and beta may depend on x and t.-see Tuckwell & Walsh, Biol Cyb 49, 99-110 (1983)

• In either case, for these linear models, on finite spa tial intervals, one may use separation of variables and obtain solut ions for thesubthreshold regime as infinite sums of Ornstein-Uhlen beck processes. Usually only the first few terms contribute significantly – see Tuckwell, Introduction to Theoretical Neurobiology volume 2 (CUP, 1988).
• For recent analytical results for some two-component l inearcable models involving a two-parameter OUP seeTuckwell, Physica A 368, 495 (2006) and Mathematical Biosciences 207, 246 (2007)
In the latter article the ISI density was shown to b e strongly dependent on the spatial distributions of ex citation and inhibition.

• Despite the complexity of ionic currents in CNS neurons, it is expeditious and helpful to first con sider the classical FN and HH PDE models. Here we consider the spatial stochastic FN model – stochasti c spatial HH is considered in Section 2.3
• With nonlinear spatial models such as Hodgkin-Huxley or Fitzhugh-Nagumo, the situation is not as simple as for the linear passive cables, but one ha s the advantage that threshold conditions are inbuilt .
• For small perturbations about a stable equilibrium point, perturbative expansions do provide a good approximation as we will demonstrate for FN.

PART 2: NOISE AND THE POINT AND SPATIAL HH MODEL
JOINT WITH BORIS GUTKIN (ENS, PARIS) AND JUERGEN JOST (MIS, MPI, LEIPZIG)
• We firstly consider two types of stimulation of an HH (point) model neuron.
• (1) Additive or “current” noise
• (2) Conductance based noise, more akin
to synaptic input.

BACKGROUND
• As a prelude to this study, we had been considering the effects of noise on coupled type 1 (QIF) neurons –see Gutkin, Jost & TuckwellTheory in Biosciences 127, 135-139 (2008) Europhysics Letters 81, 20005 (2008)
We commenced a similar study of coupled HH neurons andsome of the results are shown on the next page
Initially we had thought that the minima had been d ue to couplingbut found the same occurred with zero coupling. Th is led us toa systematic study of single HH neurons with noise.

CURRENT, THE RESPONSE UNDERGOES A DISTINCT
MINIMUM AS THE NOISE VARIES.
BECAUSE STOCHASTIC RESONANCE, FAMILIAR IN MANY
SENSORY SYSTEMS, ENTAILS A MAXIMUM IN THE RESPONSE
(OFTEN MEASURED BY A SIGNAL TO NOISE RATIO), THIS
PHENOMENON IS CALLED “INVERSE STOCHASTIC RESONANCE”.

We have sought explanations of these phenomena in terms of the variance
of the process: the idea is that if the variance becomes large in one of the basins of attraction then the process has a large chance to exit and
either stop or start spiking
To approach this analytically we have found the moment equations for an hh neuron with
noise – in the additive noise case there are 14 de’s.

IT IS OFTEN POSSIBLE TO MAKE PROGRESS IN SOLVING THE KOLMOGOROV OR FOKKER-PLANCK EQUATION (LINEAR PDE) FOR THE TRANSITION PROBABILITY DENSITY FUNCTION. HOWEVER, IN COMPLEX MULTIDIMENSIONAL CASES IT IS DESIRABLE TO HAVE APPROXIMATE ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUES.
ONE SUCH METHOD IS TO CONSTRUCT A SYSTEM OF DETERMINISTIC
ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS FOR THE MEANS AND COVARIANCES.

• Hence one sees that there is a “competition” between the tendency of noise to stop the spiking and the tendency for it to induce spiking.

Theory : use exit-time theory for Markov processes
• Theorem: The process switches from spiking to non-spiking st ates (and vice-versa) in a finite time with probability one. The expected times which the system remains in one or the other state are the solutions of linear partial differential equations given below
• Sketch proof• The process has an infinitesimal operator L. That is, the transition
density p satisfies a Kolmogorov equation • ∂p/ ∂ t = Lp• The prob p L of leaving the BOA BL of the limit cycle satisfies • Lp L =0 on BL (*)• with boundary condition • pL =1. • The solution of * is p L = a constant. Hence, because process is
continuous, p L =1 throughout BL. • Similarly for the prob p R of leaving the BOA BR of the rest state.
Standard theory gives that the expected time to sta y in the spiking statesatisfies LF L =-1 on BL with boundary condition F L = 0.Similarly for the expected time to leave BR. The be haviour of the system is thus characterized by a sequence of alternate ex it times from BL and BR.
