Spiking neural networks (SNN) are currently being researched to design an artificial brain to teach it how to think, perform, and learn like a human brain. This paper focuses on exploring optimal values of parameters of biological spiking neurons for the Hodgkin Huxley (HH) model. The HH model exhibits maximum number of neurocomputational properties as compared to other spiking models, as per previous research. This paper investigates the HH model parameters of Class 1, Class 2, phasic spiking, and integrator neurocomputational properties. For the simulation of spiking neurons, the NEURON simulator is used since it is easy to understand and code.
