In this paper, the effects of autapse (a kind of synapse formed between the axon or soma of a neuron and its own dendrites) on the weak signal detection capacity of a Hodgkin-Huxley (H-H) neuron are investigated. In the study, we consider that the H-H neuron has an inhibitory autapse modeled as a chemical synapse. The subthreshold sine wave is injected to the H-H neuron as a weak signal. Obtained results indicate that inhibitory autapse prominently increases the weak signal detection capacity of a H-H neuron when the proper autaptic time delay and autaptic conductance values are choosen.
