Synaptic Scaling in Combination with many Generic Plasticity Mechanisms Stabilizes Circuit Connectivity
Synaptic scaling is a slow process that modifies synapses, keeping the firing rate of neural circuits in specific regimes. Together with other processes, such as conventional synaptic plasticity in the form of long term depression and potentiation, this changes the synaptic patterns in a network, en...
