Figure 5D, left.

Caption (Fig 5D). Responses of a noisy integrate-and-fire model in repeated trials.

Protocol: neuron receives input = signal + noise, both O-U processes, signal
is identical in all trials (frozen noise). The total variance is held fixed.
Signal-to-noise ratio is 3 in this simulation.
