The response of three coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo neurons, under Gaussian white noise, to a subthreshold periodic signal is studied in this paper. By combining the canard dynamics, chemical coupling, and stochastic resonance together, the information transfer in this neural system is investigated. We find that chemical synaptic coupling is more efficient than the well-known linear coupling (gap junction) for local signal input, i.e., only one of the three neurons is subject to the periodic signal. This weak and local input is common in biological systems for the sake of low energy consumption.
