Hi!

Just a comment on the spike emission for Hodgkin-Huxley models. This is a non-trivial topic that requires the modeller to make a choice of what they want. Remember that the original Hodgkin-Huxley model is not a model of a neuron but a model for spike propagation down the squid axon. In this model, there is no such thing as a singular spike in the sense we use it commonly when discussing integrate-and-fire point neuron models.

In the HH model, under certain conditions, we have a rapidly rising Na current depolarizing the membrane up to around +30 mV, followed by a rapidly activating K current repolarizing the memrane again towards -70 mV. The resulting memrane potential excursion looks like a spike, but the dynamics are entirely continuous and described by the HH ODEs. These ODEs also incorporate the refractory mechanism. If one creates a chain of HH-compartments, activation will thus travel one way, again as an entirely continuous process. Only when the activation reaches an axon terminal will something new happen: exocytosis of transmitter substances into the synaptic cleft.

In typical point-neuron models, on the other hand, we have on the one hand the sub-threshold membrane potential dynamics, described by continuous ODEs, and some threshold condition. When the threshold condition is met, we say the neuron emits a spike (in the sense of a singular event causing exocytosis at axon terminals) and typically some reset mechanism applies, followed by some refractory mechanism.

When we now force the HH model into this point-neuron framework subthreshold dynamics + threshold mechanism + reset + refractoriness, the modeller needs to make choices. For the subthreshold dynamics, one will usually use the HH equations, since this is a HH model, after all.

For the threshold mechanism, various choices would be possible, but somehow one needs to detect the fast rise followed by fast fall of the membrane potential. In the built-in hh_psc_alpha model, this is done by

else if ( S_.y_[ State_::V_M ] >= 0 and U_old > S_.y_[ State_::V_M ] ) // ( threshold and maximum )

The first criterion makes sure that we are well into the rising flank of the Na-driven depolarization, the second that we have just passed the maximum of that excursion.

For the reset, hh_psc_alpha does nothing, which makes sense, since the subthreshold HH dynamics have the reset built in—the K current.

For refractoriness, hh_psc_alpha has a fixed refractory time (2 ms by default). In this model, the only effect of refractoriness is that it prohibits spiking. The subthreshold dynamics evolve freely during refractoriness. This again makes sense, since the HH dynamics have refractoriness built in. This is different in iaf-models, where the membrane potential is typically clamped to a reset potential during refractoriness.

Now the latter point raises the question of why hh_psc_alpha has an explicit refractory mechanism even though the HH-dynamics include refractory effects already. The reason is technical. Given that the Na-current will push the membrane potential to around +30 mV, it will take several time steps before the K-current will pull the potential to below 0 mV again. Then, if

S_.y_[ State_::V_M ] >= 0 and U_old > S_.y_[ State_::V_M ]

is the criterion for spike emission, a spike would be emitted for every time step during the downward flank of the membrane potential excursion until V_m < 0 again. This might be the effect you see. The refractory period in NEST's hh_psc_alpha simply suppresses these spikes during the downward flank.

A better criterion could be to not just compare V_m at two points in time but at three time steps to look for an actual maximum.

Best regards, Hans Ekkehard

No problem. The step current generator isn't showing any effect, because the first timepoint of the current generator (in ``amplitude_times``) is set to 1000, and you're also simulating for 1000 ms, so the simulation ends too soon (or the amplitude timepoint should be set earlier).

As for the spiking behaviour, this is because of the way the NESTML model is formulated. When the neuron reaches threshold, a spike is emitted, but the membrane potential is not reset to a large negative value (like E_L), so it stays above threshold and the condition remains active, triggering more spikes to be emitted. You can add the reset to make this issue go away. If this reset is undesirable (because it does not match the way your model should behave), the test that finds the peak in V_m should be improved, for instance by storing one more "old" version of V_m as the model currently does on line 197.

Hope this helps!

Yours, Charl

Hi Atiye,

You need to read out the spike times *after* the simulation, i.e., move

spike_times = nest.GetStatus(spikerecorder, keys='events')[0]['times']

after

nest.Simulate(sim_time)

For tuning ionic currents, you may want to look at

https://www.ebrains.eu/tools/interactive-workflows-for-cellular-level-modeli...

This is rather outside the scope of NEST, where the focus is more on simulating network dynamics.

Best, Hans Ekkehard
