A cerebral cortex simulation framework
Project description
CxSystem, A Flexible Cortical Simulation Framework
CxSystem is a cerebral cortex simulation framework, which operates on personal computers. We have tested the simulation software with a simplified version of a comprehensive cortical microcircuit model [1], which is available as configuration file.
The CxSystem aims at easy testing and buildup of diverse models at single cell resolution. Implemented on the top of the Python-based Brian2 simulator, CxSystem supports the main goal of Brian, i.e. minimizing development time, by providing the user with a simplified interface.
The preliminary version of this software has been developed at Aalto University 2012-2015 [2], and the full version at the University of Helsinki 2013-2017. The software is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, Copyright 2017 Vafa Andalibi, Henri Hokkanen and Simo Vanni.
