contents Inverse stochastic resonance (ISR) is a phenomenon where noise reduces rather than increases the firing rate of a neuron, sometimes leading to complete quiescence. ISR was first experimentally verified with cerebellar Purkinje neurons. These experiments showed that ISR enables optimal information transfer between the input and output spike train of neurons. Subsequent studies demonstrated the efficiency of information processing and transfer in neural networks with small-world topology. We conducted a numerical investigation into the impact of adaptivity on ISR in a small-world network of noisy FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) neurons, operating in a bistable regime with a stable fixed point and a limit cycle -- a prerequisite for ISR. Our results show that the degree of ISR is highly dependent on the FHN model's timescale separation parameter $ε$. The network structure undergoes dynamic adaptation via mechanisms of either spike-time-dependent plasticity (STDP) with potentiation-/depression-domination parameter $P$, or homeostatic structural plasticity (HSP) with rewiring frequency $F$. We demonstrate that both STDP and HSP amplify ISR when $ε$ lies within the bistability region of FHN neurons. Specifically, at larger values of $ε$ within the bistability regime, higher rewiring frequencies $F$ enhance ISR at intermediate (weak) synaptic noise intensities, while values of $P$ consistent with depression-domination (potentiation-domination) enhance (deteriorate) ISR. Moreover, although STDP and HSP parameters may jointly enhance ISR, $P$ has a greater impact on ISR compared to $F$. Our findings inform future ISR enhancement strategies in noisy artificial neural circuits, aiming to optimize information transfer between input and output spike trains in neuromorphic systems, and prompt venues for experiments in neural networks.
