Abstract
A neuron can respond to periodic inhibitory input with a variety of co mplex behaviors, periodic and aperiodic. We present a succession of mo dels to test hypotheses for mechanisms underlying complex behavior gen eration. Model comparison using non-linear dynamics techniques indicat es that long-duration IPSP aftereffects and spiking behavior are neces sary for most of the basic response properties, though not sufficient for some of their more subtle aspects.
