Information in a Network of Neuronal Cells: Effect of Cell Density and Short-Term Depression

Figure 6

Information delivered through individual nodes can be integrated over a circumference of radius , where the radius is the distance from the initial point of transmission. The integral is a measure of information transported at a specific length from the center of the network. In the diagram, you may observe three different regimens of information transmission. In the intermediate regimen, the total information conveyed through the grid is constant.
