Abstract

A method for estimating the synaptic current distribution is described, which is based on solving the inverse problem for a system of homogeneously distributed parallel cylinders as a model of dendrites of the pyramidal neurons. The estimates are compared with the data known from literature and those obtained in an independent model.
