Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) It has been reported that in experiments on human coordinated rhythmic movements, the frequency of voluntary rhythm is entrained by periodic external force so that the frequency ratios of voluntary rhythm to external force are rational numbers in low order. To propose a mechanism in the neural network level which generates such synchronization, we constructed a model that employs a pulse generating neuron. We analyzed the characteristics of the model in which a neuron receives two impulse trains the frequencies of which are different, one as the input from central nervous system and the other as external force. It is shown that entrainment can be seen in a way that the frequency ratios of output pulses to external pulses are national numbers in low order.
