Abstract

Inverse chaotic resonance is a phenomenon, in which the mean firing rate of a neuron exhibits a minimum depending on the chaotic signal intensity, which emerges in the firing dynamics of neurons. In this study, we have investigated the effects of inhibitory and excitatory autapses on the inverse chaotic resonance phenomenon in Morris-Lecar (ML) neurons. We show that, for proper constant stimulus current, the ML neurons exhibits inverse chaotic resonance phenomenon in the firing dynamics as a function of the intensity of the chaotic activity. In addition, we find that, at low and medium chaotic activity levels, the ML neuron shows multiple-inverse chaotic resonance phenomenon depending on autaptic time delay for low and intermediate autaptic conductances. Finally, we show that, both excitatory and inhibitory autapse augment the firing rate of the ML neuron, this increase is more in the case of excitatory autapse.
