Figure 2. Connectivity schemes in GeNN.

Figure 2

(a) Connectivity in an example network. (b) YALE format sparse representation of the network shown in (a). For the Inline graphic pre-synaptic neuron, Inline graphic gives the index of the starting point in the arrays that store the postsynaptic neuron index Inline graphic, and other variables, e.g. Inline graphic. The Inline graphic pre-synaptic neuron makes Inline graphic connections with the postsynaptic population. The index of the Inline graphic postsynaptic neuron that is connected to Inline graphic pre-synaptic neuron is stored in Inline graphic, and a synapse variable for the pre-synaptic and post-synaptic neuron pair are stored in Inline graphic. (c) Dense representation for the same network. n stands for number of elements, Inline graphic is number of pre-synaptic neurons, Inline graphic is number of post-synaptic neurons, Inline graphic is the total number of connections in the synapse population.
