Hi,
Thanks a lot for your replies.
Regarding your first question, please note that I took the matlab code from
Izhikevich's book, chapter 8 so that I kept the time variable as is.
The simulated model has reduced many Hodgkin-Huxely-type neuronal models to a
two-dimensional system of ordinary differential equations and can reproduces behavior
of different types of neurons using different values of the parameters ( a, b,
c, d, C .. ).
Finally, I have hyperpolarized the cell using the following code but the model
still generates the results for the tonic firing pattern:
.
.
for i=1:n-1 % forward Euler method
if (i<100)
I(i)=-100;
end;
.
.
Best Regards,
Kamal.
