Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Synchronization of neurons plays an important role in information processing of organisms, and there have been a lot of analytical and numerical results regarding the synchronization conditions in various model neural networks. In most of these works, simple connections such as all-to-all couplings or local couplings have been assumed. However, more complex structures such as small-world properties have been shown to exist biologically. In the present report, we examine synchronization phenomena of leaky integrate-and-fire neurons in various network topology. We show small-world networks can lead to synchronous firing more easily than random networks or local networks do.
