Auryn is written in a modular way which easily allows you to define and create your own neuron models (NeuronGroup), synapse and plasticity models (Connection) and monitoring tools. In this section we will slowly build several example walk-throughs of how to achieve this in a step-by-step manner.
First steps
- Howto compile and run your own Auryn simulations.
- Example: A simple balanced network model.
Advanced techniques
Writing your own plasticity model. This is a simple walk-through for the logic behind plastic updates and what methods are called where and when. It sketches in simple terms what needs to be done to implement a new custom synapse model in Auryn.
Multiple synaptic state variables. This example aims at creating a plastic connection object in which the the actual weight change is the low-pass filtered output of meta-variable which is influenced by STDP.
