Abstract
The dynamics of the standard integrate-fire model and a simpler model (that reproduces the important features of the integrate-fire model un der certain conditions) of neural dynamics are studied in the presence of a deterministic external driving force, taken to be time-periodic, and white background noise. Both models possess resonant phenomena in the first passage probability distribution and mean first passage tim e, arising from the interplay of characteristic time scales in the sys tem.
