Schematic of the simulation. Neurons from CA3 have multiple boutons that synapse onto neurons in CA1. Each bouton undergoes either short-term facilitation (STF; green boutons) or short-term depression (STD; red boutons). Each bouton has a fixed release probability. In the SSB simulations, each bouton connects to a single CA1 neuron, whereas in the MSB simulations, each bouton might connect to multiple neurons in CA1.
