Eyes Open on Sleep and Wake: In Vivo to In Silico Neural Networks

Figure 3

(a) Canonical microcircuit (CMC) epitomizes a given cortical column and comprises four neuronal populations connected through excitatory and inhibitory projections (modified from [24]). (b) Schematic diagram of the DCM algorithm functioning. The forward problem rests upon a neuronal model (as for (a)) and provides a likelihood function, which is then used in the inverse problem to derive a posterior distribution for the neuronal parameters.
