Decision-making and interacting neuron populations
Résumé
In this article we present the modeling of bi-stability view problems described by the activity or firing rates of two interacting population of neurons. Starting from the study of a complex system, the sys-tem of stochastic differential equations describing the time evolution of the activity of the two populations of neurons, we point out the strength and weakness of this model and consider its associated par-tial differential equation, which resolution gives statistical information on the firing rates distributions. The slow-fast characterization of the solutions finally leads us to a complexity reduction of the model by the definition of a one-dimensional stochastic differential equation and its associated one-dimensional partial differential equation. This last model turns out to be well adapted to the resolution of the prob-lem giving access, in particular, to reaction times and performance, two macroscopic variables describing the decision-making in the view problem.
