 Auryn was specifically designed to study synaptic plasticity. To see plasticity in action you can monitor single synaptic weights or groups of them using a [[WeightMonitor]] object. If you are only interested in let's say the mean weight change in one of the plastic [[Connection]] objects your defined (i.e. the mean weight between two neuronal populations in your simulation), you can use [[WeightStatsMonitor]]. You will find other Monitor classes in the Auryn ''src'' directory (see also the [[http://www.fzenke.net/auryn/doxygen/current/annotated.html|Class index]]; Monitor classes should be suffixes with ''Monitor'') or you can write your own for your specific needs.
-In most cases Auryn [[Monitor]] objects will record data to files on disk on perform a minimum of online analysis. This can be cumbersome if you would for instance like to monitor the activity in your network and stop a simulation if the activity explodes or the network falls quiescent. To tackle this problem, Auryn has a specific class which allows minimalistic online monitoring. They are called [[Checker|Checkers]].
+In most cases Auryn [[Monitor]] instances will individually record data to separate files on disk and perform a minimum of on-line analysis (here are some [[extensions|default extensions]] I am using for these output files).
