Driving-frequency dependence of colored-noise superiority over white noise in weak-signal response

Ascertain how the external driving frequency influences the conclusion that Ornstein–Uhlenbeck colored noise yields superior weak-signal response compared to Gaussian white noise in excitable neuron models.

Background

Prior work (Nozaki et al.) conjectured and provided evidence that colored noise may surpass white noise in eliciting weak-signal responses in excitable neurons at fixed driving frequency and sufficiently strong noise. The authors note that the role of driving frequency in this comparative performance had not been clarified and frame it as an open issue before presenting their own analysis.
