Identification of the Impulse-Response Functions of a Non-Reflecting Monopolar Neuron and Its Parts
… current was analyzed by introducing a "current" cable equation to standard ("voltage") cable theory. Also, the concepts of characteristic impedance, Z$\sb0$, and propagation factor, $\gamma$, of transmission line theory were instrumental in determining the propagation of both current and voltage …

Sodium Channel Loss of Function Sensitizes Conduction to Changes in Extracellular Sodium Concentration
… conduction has traditionally been described by cable theory, which predicts an inverse relationship between extracellular resistance and conduction velocity (CV). However, in studies that reduce extracellular resistance by inducing interstitial edema, there are conflicting results, with some …

Identification of Dendritic Processing in Spiking Neural Circuits
… processing that is consistent with the broader cable theory description of dendritic trees. We prove that the neural identification problem, stated in terms of identifying the kernels of the dendritic stimulus processor, is mathematically dual to the neural population encoding problem. …

Roles of gap junctions in neuronal networks
… mathematical model for gap junctionally coupled cables to understand the voltage response along the cables as a function of cable diameter. For the coupled cables, as cable diameter increases, the electrotonic distance decreases, which cause the voltage to attenuate less, but the input of the …

Parameter Estimation for a Modified Cable Model Using a Green's Function and Eigenvalue Perturbation.
<p>In this thesis we developed the Green's Function for a tapered equivalent cylinder model of dendritic electrical propagation. We then use the Green's Function to develop a Carleman linear embedding scheme which is used to estimate the effects of a nonlinear ion channel hot-spot on the tapered …
