Abstract
A ten-layer feed forward network was constructed in the presence of an exogenous alternating magnetic field. Results indicate that for rate coding, the firing rate is increased in the presence of an exogenous alternating magnetic field and particularly with increasing enhancement of the alternating magnetic field amplitude. For temporal coding, in the presence of alternating magnetic field, the interspike intervals of the spiking sequence are decreased and the distribution of interspike intervals tends to be uniform.
