Abstract:
We discuss synchronization in networks of Hindmarsh-Rose neurons that are interconnected via gap junctions, also known as electrical synapses. We present theoretical results for interactions without time-delay. These results are supported by experiments with a setup consisting of sixteen electronic equivalents of the Hindmarsh-Rose neuron. We show experimental results of networks where time-delay on the interaction is taken into account. We discuss in particular the influence of the network topology on the synchronization.
