Introduction

This project will contain examples of the Izhikevich spiking neuron model.

Installation

To get local clone of this project Install Git, go to the directory in which the project will be cloned and type:

> git clone https://github.com/OpenSourceBrain/IzhikevichModel.git

Versions of the project

The original model in MATLAB format has been converted to a number of other formats.

PyNN

Install PyNN. Preferably, use the latest v0.8 version from GitHub. Note: NEURON is the only supported simulator for this model at the moment.

> cd IzhikevichModel/PyNN/

To run a simulation type:

> python izhikevich2004.py neuron

NeuroML 2

The XML for an Izhikevich model in NeuroML v2.0 is below:

<code class="xml">
<izhikevichCell id="TonicSpiking" v0 = "-70mV" thresh = "30mV" a ="0.02" b = "0.2" c = "-65.0" d = "6" Iamp="0" Idel="0ms" Idur="2000ms"/></code>

For full examples of single cells see TonicSpiking or PhasicBursting

(a) Same behaviour
(b) Similar behaviour when slightly modifying parameters
© Similar but not identical behaviour (different number of spikes in the stimulus time frame)
(d) Not yet implemented. Need ramp injected current. See https://github.com/NeuralEnsemble/PyNN/issues/257
(e) Requires an alternative model implementation since the model parameterization is different in the original Matlab code. In NeuroML new ComponentType generalizedIzhikevichCell was created.
(f) Requires an alternative model implementation since the model parameterization is different in the original Matlab code. In NeuroML new ComponentType accomodationIzhikevichCell was created.
