Abstract

The phenomena of selective response of an excitable system to external pulse stimulation relating to interneuron communication and information processing problems are discussed. Subthreshold dynamics of the FitzHugh-Nagumo-like excitable system modeling of a neuron with the synaptic input is investigated. It is shown that the system response on various incoming information messages can be described by one- and two-dimensional linear and nonlinear point maps. Nonlinear integrating and resonant properties of the system are analyzed.
