Voltage and spike timing interact in STDP - a unified model

A phenomenological model of synaptic plasticity is able to account for a large body of experimental data on Spike-Timing Dependent Plasticity. The basic ingredient of the model is the correlation of presynaptic spike arrival with postsynaptic voltage. The local membrane voltage is used twice: a firs...
