Multiplicative synaptic normalisation and a non-linear Hebb rule underlie a neurotrophic model of competitive synaptic plasticity

Synaptic normalisation is used to enforce competitive dynamics is many models of developmental synaptic plasticity. In linear and semi-linear Hebbian models, multiplicative synaptic normalisation fails to segregate afferents whose activity patterns are positively correlated. To achieve this, the bio...
