Peculiarities of calculation of the synchronization coefficienт in neuronal networks
Abstract
The peculiarities of calculation of the synchronization coefficient in the brain neuronal network are discussed. The synchronization analysis is based on the cross-correlation of the action potential time for any pairs of neurons. The limitation of the method is a way of choosing the duration of time interval. It is used for transformation of the sequence of action potential chain to the binary numerical format with the following cross-correlation value calculation. Using optimization principle, which helps to define the network degree of synchronization exactly, we developed a method of the “optimal” time interval value determination.References
