Introduction
------------

This project contains will contain examples of the Izhikevich spiking neuron model. Most of the behaviours seem in Fig. 1 of [Izhikevich 2004](http://www.izhikevich.org/publications/whichmod.htm) are reproduced in PyNN and NeuroML 2 implementations.

### Installation

To get local clone of this project [Install Git](http://www.opensourcebrain.org/projects/gitintro/wiki/Wiki), 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](http://izhikevich.org/publications/figure1.m) has been converted to a number of other formats.

#### PyNN

Install [PyNN](http://neuralensemble.org/trac/PyNN/wiki/Installation). Preferably, use the latest v0.8 version from [GitHub](https://github.com/NeuralEnsemble/PyNN). 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](/projects/izhikevichmodel/repository/entry/neuroConstruct/cellMechanisms/TonicSpiking/TonicSpiking.nml) or [PhasicBursting](/projects/izhikevichmodel/repository/entry/neuroConstruct/cellMechanisms/PhasicBursting/PhasicBursting.nml)

Tested with simulators: …

(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](https://github.com/OpenSourceBrain/IzhikevichModel/blob/master/NeuroML2/GeneralizedIzhikevichCell.xml) was created.
(f) Requires an alternative model implementation since the model parameterization is different in the original Matlab code. In NeuroML new ComponentType [accomodationIzhikevichCell](https://github.com/OpenSourceBrain/IzhikevichModel/blob/master/NeuroML2/GeneralizedIzhikevichCell.xml) was created.
