Transient Periodicity in a Morris-Lecar Neural System

Figure 8

(a) Two-dimensional view of the chaotic saddle at 𝑏 = 0 . 1 2 , 𝑉 6 = 0 . 3 in ( 𝑉 , 𝑍 ) plane. (b) Two signals starting from two nearby initial conditions. The non-overlap between the two (except in the time domain (700–900)) confirms that the dynamical behavior displayed by the system is chaos. The transient periodicity manifests itself in the time domain 700–900.
