Energy Function and Numerical Simulation on Neuronal Population

Based on the principle of energy coding, an interesting finding in this paper is that in some subsets of neurons, firing action potentials at the supra-threshold and some others simultaneously perform activities at the sub-threshold level in neural ensembles. Numerical computational results show that a possible dynamic mechanism in the brain information processing is merely energy coding. Notably, this kind of coupling in biological neural networks has not been found in other models of biological neural networks.
