Abstract: Frequency filtering via feedforward inhibition (Akam & Kullmann, 2010) or selective effects on spike coherence in excitatory/inhibitory networks with multiple classes of interneurons (Börgers, Epstein, & Kopell, 2008) Common across many cortical areas Modulating excitation/inhibition balance during signal propagation Selective modulation of inhibitory neurons in balanced networks, e.g., via cholinergic modulation (Vogels & Abbott, 2009) Common across many cortical areas Gain control Divisive normalization Shunting inhibition in networks, balanced background synaptic excitation and inhibition or other mechanisms (Carandini & Heeger, 2012) Common across many cortical areas Sequencing of events over time Feed-forward cascades Synfire chains (Ikegaya et al., 2004) Language and motor areas Serial working memories Ordinal serial encoding through variable binding (Choo and Eliasmith, 2010) Prefrontal cortex Representation and transformation of variables
