Abstract :
In this paper, the firing rate of the neuron based on temporal coincidence coding is estimated for correlation detection. Two cases are considered: the independent inputs are stochastic spike trains that are modeled by the homogeneous Poisson process or the renew process. The situation that the inputs are correlated is also considered and the conditions for the neuron to detect the correlation among inputs are discussed. The results are demonstrated by the simulations.
