Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of neuron model circuits, and in particular relates to a three-dimensional Hindmarsh-Rose neuron model circuit. Background Art

[0002] Neuroscience research has only been around for a century. Because neurons are the fundamental units of the nervous system, previous research has been based on neuronal models. Neurons number in the mammalian nervous system, reaching billions. When the human brain transmits information, neurons emit electrical discharges and transmit information between neurons. This allows the body to sense changes in the external environment, transmit the brain's signals in response to these changes, and thus interact with the external environment. To understand the workings of the nervous system, many researchers have developed various mathematical models to describe the firing behavior of neurons. Currently, a wide variety of neuronal models exist. Over the past three decades, numerous models have evolved from the classic Hodgkin-Huxley model to describe the firing dynamics of neurons, such as the FitzHugh-Naguma model, the Hindmarsh-Rose model, and the Morris-Lecar model.

[0003] In 1984, Hindmarsh and Rose proposed the Hindmarsh-Rose (HR) neuron model. As a generalization of the FHN model, the HR model can better explain the dynamic characteristics of neurons, such as pulse discharge, cluster discharge, and chaotic behavior. This model has a relatively sensitive response characteristic to the excitation of the system. For the research direction of rotating machinery bearing fault diagnosis, by constructing a reasonable system model, utilizing the unique sensitivity to external excitation and excellent noise resistance of Hindmarsh-Rose neurons (neurodynamic systems), combined with signal processing methods such as empirical mode decomposition and fractal dynamics, by extracting the characteristics of weak signals instead of eliminating or suppressing noise, the singular characteristics of bearing damage in vibration information can be identified, thereby providing a theoretical basis for the bearing damage judgment criteria of the neurodynamic system under weak signal excitation.

[0004] Considering that neuron models are generally composed of second-order or third-order mutually coupled differential equations, and as the number of neurons increases, the computational load for dynamic analysis will also be very huge, so the real-time performance of the analysis and calculation cannot be guaranteed. Summary of the Invention

[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0031] In order to solve the problem of real-time dynamic analysis of neuron models, this paper proposes a three-dimensional Hindmarsh-Rose neuron model circuit under periodic excitation based on the characteristics of low hardware circuit cost, good real-time performance and easy integration. It provides hardware support for studying the dynamic behavior of neurons under periodic excitation, which has important theoretical research significance and practical application value.

[0032] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is to design a three-dimensional Hindmarsh-Rose neuron model circuit under periodic excitation and build a corresponding hardware circuit, the structure of which is as follows:

[0033] The circuit is: a three-dimensional Hindmarsh-Rose neuron model under periodic excitation to realize the circuit diagram, such as Figure 1 The three-dimensional Hindmarsh-Rose neuron model implementation circuit includes a neuron model circuit and an output isolation circuit.

[0034] The neuron model implementation circuit consists of 9 operational amplifiers and 2 multiplier circuits. Figure 1 In the figure, the periodic excitation ui is input into the neuron circuit model by a voltage divider circuit composed of R9 and R10 connected to the non-inverting input of the operational amplifier U2. The specific voltage divider ratio can be controlled by R9 and R10. U2 is an input isolator. After being isolated by U2, the periodic excitation is input from the output end through R8 to the non-inverting input of the operational amplifier U1. U1 is a non-inverting proportional operational circuit. R4, R5, R6, R7, and R8 are connected to the non-inverting input of U1. Their values ​​are related to the coefficients of the equation. See formulas (5) and (6) for details. The output of U1 is connected in series with R11 to become the output of X. The capacitors C1 and R11 connected to R11 are used as coefficients in the equation.

[0035] Similarly, the input of Y has been set to 9V in this neuron circuit, and R 15 、R 16 The voltage divider circuit is divided and input to the positive input terminal of U4, and then output by U4 and then pass through R 17 、R 18The voltage divider circuit is divided and input to the positive input terminal of the operational amplifier U3. The output terminal of U3 is output through R, which is the output of Y in the neuron circuit. The same C2, R 19 The coefficients of the equation are shown in formulas (5) and (6).

[0036] The input of neuron circuit Z is similar to that of Y. The input voltage is also fixed to 9V in the present invention. 24 、R 25 The voltage divider circuit is divided and input to the operational amplifier U6, and then output by U6 and then through R 23 、R 26 The voltage divider circuit formed by the voltage divider is input to the positive input terminal of U5 after voltage division. The output of U5 is the output of Z. C3, R 11 is the coefficient of the equation, see formula (5) and (6) for details.

[0037] In this circuit, the output of X is connected to the non-inverting input of operational amplifier U1 via R4. The output of X serves as the input of the square multiplier circuit and is connected to the non-inverting input of operational amplifier U5 via R22. The output of Y is connected to the non-inverting input of operational amplifier U1 via R7. The output of Z is connected to the inverting input of operational amplifier U1 via R3.

[0038] To meet the computational requirements of this circuit, a squaring circuit and an inverting cubing circuit are also required. To achieve this, this circuit connects the input and output of the squaring circuit to another squaring circuit to achieve the inverting cubing operation. Furthermore, to meet the equation's requirements, this neuron circuit connects the output of the squaring circuit to the non-inverting input of operational amplifier U1 via R5; and the output of the inverting cubing circuit to the non-inverting input of operational amplifier U1 via R6.

[0039] In the present invention, a peripheral circuit is also designed that can connect a certain load (the specific load in the present invention is an LED lamp) to the X, Y, and Z output interfaces respectively without affecting the output characteristics of the original neuron circuits X, Y, and Z. For the output of X, it is connected to the operational amplifier U9, and the input and output are first isolated. The output of U9 is connected to U10. After being amplified by U10 inversely, it is connected to LEDX to drive the load. RX1, RX2, RX3, RX4, and RX5 are matching resistors. For the output of Y, similar to X, an isolator is still first constructed through the operational amplifier U7, and the output characteristics of Y are inverted. Then, the load LEDY is connected. RY1, RY2, RY3, RY4, and RY5 are corresponding matching resistors. For the output of Z, because its output voltage is sufficient to drive the load, it is only necessary to isolate it and then output it. RZ1 and RZ2 are matching resistors.

[0040] Mathematical Modeling: This invention implements a three-dimensional Hindmarsh-Rose neuron model circuit under periodic excitation. This circuit is based on a three-dimensional Hindmarsh-Rose neuron, whose system equation contains three state variables x, y, and z. By modifying its circuit structure, its output characteristics under periodic input excitation have theoretical research significance. The model can be described by three coupled first-order ordinary differential equations:

[0041]

[0042] Where x is the membrane potential, y is the peak variable used to measure the rate at which Na+ and K+ pass through the fast channel, and z is the burst variable, which represents the rate at which other ions pass through the slow channel. When the parameters in the equation are varied, the model can reproduce the burst discharge, peak discharge, or chaotic activity of real biological neurons. In the present invention, the parameters are a = 1.0, b = 3.0, c = 1.0, d = 5.0, r = 0.0021, s = 4.0, and χ = -1.60. Here, Iext is expressed as follows:

[0043] I ext =I+Q0 cosωt (2)

[0044] Where I is the direct bias component of the external excitation, Q0 is the excitation amplitude, and ω is the excitation frequency.

[0045] exist Figure 1 In a three-dimensional Hindmarsh-Rose neuron circuit under periodic excitation shown in , considering the limitations of nonlinear analog components in the circuit, the scaling of formula (3) is adopted as follows:

[0046]

[0047] The scaled equivalent system is governed by the following equations:

[0048]

[0049] According to Kirchhoff's law and the electrical characteristics of circuit components, the relevant circuit equations of the Hindmarsh-Rose circuit model are as follows (ui is the periodic excitation input of the actual circuit, V cc Set to 9V):
