Interconnectivity¶
-
class
cell_connection
¶ Describes a connection between two cells: a pre-synaptic source and a post-synaptic destination. The source is typically a threshold detector on a cell or a spike source. The destination is a synapse on the post-synaptic cell.
-
using
cell_connection_endpoint
= cell_member_type¶ Connection end-points are represented by pairs (cell index, source/target index on cell).
-
cell_connection_endpoint
source
¶ Source end point.
-
cell_connection_endpoint
dest
¶ Destination end point.
-
float
weight
¶ The weight delivered to the target synapse. The weight is dimensionless, and its interpretation is specific to the synapse type of the target. For example, the expsyn synapse interprets it as a conductance with units μS (micro-Siemens).
-
float
delay
¶ Delay of the connection (milliseconds).

class
gap_junction_connection
¶ Describes a gap junction between two gap junction sites. Gap junction sites are represented by :cpp:type:cell_member_type.
-
cell_member_type
local
¶ gap junction site: one half of the gap junction connection.
-
cell_member_type
peer
¶ gap junction site: other half of the gap junction connection.
-
float
ggap
¶ gap junction conductance in μS.
