direct scaling
direct scaling Direct scaling is the multiplicative increase of a neuron’s synaptic input, so that both the average level and variability of the net current are scaled together.
Direct scaling is the multiplicative increase of a neuron’s synaptic input, so that both the average level and variability of the net current are scaled together. In the balanced excitation-inhibition range described here, this produces an immediate proportional amplification of spiking responses that can track rapid input changes without depending on earlier spiking.
