Improvement of signal-to-noise ratio in parallel neuron arrays with spatially nearest neighbor correlated noise.

We theoretically investigate the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of a parallel array of leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) neurons that receives a weak periodic signal and uses spatially nearest neighbor correlated noise. By using linear response theory, we derive the analytic expression of the SNR. The res...
