DynaSim mechanism files for simulating (Benita et al., 2012)

DynaSim-compatible mechanism files for simulation of the cortex of (Benita et al., 2012).

Adding these mechanism files and associated functions into where you keep your mechanism files for DynaSim, e.g. /your/path/to/dynasim/models, should enable you to simulate the computational cortex from:

Benita, J. M., Guillamon, A., Deco, G., & Sanchez-Vives, M. V. (2012).
Synaptic depression and slow oscillatory activity in a biophysical
network model of the cerebral cortex. Frontiers in Computational
Neuroscience, 6. https://doi.org/10.3389/fncom.2012.00064

This is NOT intended as a bit-perfect reproduction of the original model, but rather just an open-source, adequate reproduction of the overall qualitative results.

Install and Usage

The easiest way to get started with this is:

  1. Install DynaSim (https://github.com/DynaSim/DynaSim/wiki/Installation), including adding it to your MATLAB path.
  2. Run git clone https://github.com/asoplata/dynasim-benita-2012-model or download this code's repo (https://github.com/asoplata/dynasim-benita-2012-model) into '/your/path/to/dynasim/models', i.e. the 'models' subdirectory of your copy of the DynaSim repo.
  3. Start MATLAB, and run the main runscript runBenitaModel.m.
