LIF cells#
- class arbor.lif_cell#
A benchmarking cell (leaky integrate-and-fire), used by Arbor developers to test communication performance, with neuronal parameters:
- lif_cell(source, target, **, tau_m, V_th, C_m, E_L, E_R, V_m, t_ref)#
Constructor: assigns the label
source
to the single built-in source on the cell; and assigns the labeltarget
to the single built-in target on the cell. Optional parameters may be given and set the correspoding physical parameters of the cell
- source#
The label of the single built-in source on the cell. Used for forming connections from the cell in the
arbor.recipe
by creating aarbor.connection
.
- target#
The label of the single built-in target on the cell. Used for forming connections to the cell in the
arbor.recipe
by creating aarbor.connection
.
- tau_m#
Membrane potential decaying constant [ms].
- V_th#
Firing threshold [mV].
- C_m#
Membrane capacitance [pF].
- E_L#
Resting potential [mV].
- E_R#
Reset potential [mV].
- V_m#
Initial value of the Membrane potential [mV].
- t_ref#
Refractory period [ms].
