Spike source cells¶
- class arbor.spike_source_cell¶
A spike source cell, that generates a user-defined sequence of spikes that act as inputs for other cells in the network.
- spike_source_cell(source, schedule)¶
Construct a spike source cell that generates spikes and give it the label
source
. The label can be used for forming connections from the cell in thearbor.recipe
by creating aarbor.connection
at regular intervals (using an
arbor.regular_schedule
)at a sequence of user-defined times (using an
arbor.explicit_schedule
)at times defined by a Poisson sequence (using an
arbor.poisson_schedule
)
- Parameters:
source – label of the source on the cell.
schedule – User-defined sequence of time points (choose from
arbor.regular_schedule
,arbor.explicit_schedule
, orarbor.poisson_schedule
).
