Based on these experimental findings, besides Hebbian plasticity during training, we modeled these two distinct homeostatic mechanisms following MD: (1) synaptic scaling which acts only on excitatory synapses (Turrigiano et al., 1998; Hengen et al., 2013) , and (2) intrinsic plasticity which modifies the intrinsic excitability of both excitatory and inhibitory neurons (Grubb and Burrone, 2010; Campanac et al., 2013) (Methods) . We speculated that this failure to recover correlations in the model network, despite the recovery of firing rates, could be the result of perturbing the structured connectivity between excitatory neurons within assemblies generated through training (Fig. 3B) . ./cache/cord-103041-ymr3e60k.txt ./txt/cord-103041-ymr3e60k.txt
