Stimulus number, duration and intensity encoding in randomly connected attractor networks with synaptic depression

Randomly connected recurrent networks of excitatory groups of neurons can possess a multitude of attractor states. When the internal excitatory synapses of these networks are depressing, the attractor states can be destabilized with increasing input. This leads to an itinerancy, where with either re...
