Abstract

Synchronization of small-world neuronal network with synapse plasticity is explored in this paper. The variation properties of synapse weights are studied first, and then the effects of synapse learning coefficient, the coupling strength and the adding probability on synchronization of the neuronal network are studied respectively. It is shown that appropriate learning coefficient is helpful for improving synchronization, and complete synchronization can be obtained by increasing the coupling strength and the adding probability.
