Surrogate Gradients for Gradient-Based Parameter Estimation in Simplified Neuron Models
Simplified spiking neuron models such as the Adaptive Exponential Integrate-and-Fire (AdEx) model reproduce the firing behaviour of diverse neuron types at a fraction of the cost of biophysically detailed models, making them attractive for large-scale brain simulation. Fitting their parameters to recordings, however, still relies on derivative-free search such as grid search or evolutionary…
