Abstract | This article presents an analysis of the information rate of neural spike trains in an auditory nerve fiber (ANF) model stimulated extracellularly by sinusoidal electric stimuli under the case where a high-rate pulsatile waveform is presented as a conditioner for increasing the across-fiber-independency, i.e., desynchronization. In the computer simulation, stimulus current waveforms were presented repeatedly to a stimulating electrode located 1 mm above the 26th node of Ranvier, in an ANF axon model having 50 nodes of Ranvier, each consisting of stochastic sodium and potassium channels. From spike firing times recorded at the 36th node of Ranvier, the inter spike intervals were generated and then "total" and "noise" entropies were estimated to obtain the mutual information and information rate of the spike trains. In the present article, it is shown that at a specific amplitude of sinusoidal waveforms, the possibility to encode the sinusoidal function with various amplitudes became greater (enlarging dynamic range), as well as the information rate was found to be maximized. It was implied that setting the amplitude of sinusoids to the specific values which maximize the information rate might contribute to efficiently encoding information under the high-rate pulsatile stimulation in cochlear prostheses |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
