| Burst synchronization of a globally coupled neuronal network composed of Hodgkin-Huxley neurons with delayed and plastic chemical synapses is studied in this paper. First a modified Hodgkin-Huxley neuronal model exhibiting bursting behaviors is proposed and used to construct neuronal systems, with a short-term synaptic plasticity considered in delayed chemical synapses. Then the effect of the learning rate, the coupling strength, and the synaptic delay on burst synchronization of the network is explored for excitatory and inhibitory neuronal networks, respectively. It is found that burst synchronization is sensitive to these parameter values and might be meaningful for information processing in human brain. |
