Finite-Size Effects on Traveling Wave Solutions to Neural Field Equations

Abstract Neural field equations are used to describe the spatio-temporal evolution of the activity in a network of synaptically coupled populations of neurons in the continuum limit. Their heuristic derivation involves two approximation steps. Under the assumption that each population in the network...
