Abstract
This paper describes computer simulations of the behavior of Hodgkin-H uxley neurons, based on a redefinition of membrane and synaptic connec tions as time-invariant circuit elements. Examples are given showing t hat this self-consistent equivalent circuit representation allows very efficient computer simulations and could facilitate the introduction of detailed biological neurons into formal neural networks.
