Divisive gain modulation with dynamic stimuli in integrate-and-fire neurons.

The modulation of the sensitivity, or gain, of neural responses to input is an important component of neural computation. It has been shown that divisive gain modulation of neural responses can result from a stochastic shunting from balanced (mixed excitation and inhibition) background activity. Thi...
