| Since STD suppresses synaptic efficacy in a frequency-dependent manner, it has been suggested that STD provides an automatic mechanism to achieve gain control, namely, by assigning high gain to slowly firing afferents and low gain to rapidly firing afferents ([[#Abbott97|Abbott 97]], [[#Abbott04|Abbott 04]], [[#Cook03|Cook 03]]). If a steady presynaptic firing rate <math>R</math> changes abruptly by an amount <math>\Delta R</math>, the first spike at the new rate will be transmitted with the efficacy <math>E</math> before the synapse is further depressed. Thus, the transient increase in synaptic input will be proportional to <math>\Delta R E(R)</math>, which is approximately proportional to <math>\Delta R/R</math> for large rates (see above). This is reminiscent of Weber’s law, which states that a transient synaptic response is roughly proportional to the percentage change of the input firing rate. Fig. 2D shows that for a fixed-size rate change <math>\Delta R</math>, the response decreases as a function of the steady input value; whereas without STD, the response would be constant for a fixed-size rate change. | | Since STD suppresses synaptic efficacy in a frequency-dependent manner, it has been suggested that STD provides an automatic mechanism to achieve gain control, namely, by assigning high gain to slowly firing afferents and low gain to rapidly firing afferents ([[#Abbott97|Abbott 97]], [[#Abbott04|Abbott 04]], [[#Cook03|Cook 03]]).
