Abstract

In the field of neuroscience, it is widely acknowledged that neurons exhibit periodic, quasi-periodic, and chaotic responses to periodic inputs. In this study, we evaluated the responses of the Izhikevich neuron model stimulated by sinusoidal inputs. First, we analyzed the dynamical behavior of the Izhikevich neuron model to the sinusoidal inputs in the state space and found two types of responses: periodic and non-periodic. Next, we obtained the domains of the periodic and non-periodic responses on the frequency-amplitude plane of the sinusoidal inputs by evaluating the diversity index of the inter-spike intervals. Finally, we analyzed the responses of the Izhikevich neuron model using the stroboscopic plot. Consequently, we clarified that a periodic response is a limit cycle and an irregular response is a torus, which implies that the irregular responses of the Izhikevich neuron model stimulated by sinusoidal inputs are quasi-periodic responses.
