Abstract

The Neuron network modeling compares neuron behavior in terms of electrical properties to predict the propagation of capacitative, or inductive current/potential along a nerve fiber. Membrane ion channels act as capacitor-inductor circuits, similar to a radio receiver and transmitter. Therefore, a single circuit, including the membrane capacitor, the ion channel, inductors and resistors, nerve fibers, neurons, and the whole CNS may be modeled as radio receivers and transmitters A speech process for the hearing impaired is disclosed as one example embodiment.
