Effects of Inhibitory Signal on Criticality in Excitatory-Inhibitory Networks *

Fan Wang,Sheng-Jun Wang

Fig. 3 (Color online) Dynamic range versus branching ratio for different values of inhibitory coupling strength $m$. The points represent simulation results with $m=1$ (square), $m=5$ (circle), and $m=10$ (triangle) on EI networks. The lines correspond to theoretical results from Eqs. (20) and (21) with $m=1$ (black), $m=5$ (red), $m=10$ (blue). The inset presents the error of dynamic range for different inhibitory coupling strength.
