Microcircuit Parameters.
| Symbol | Value (Potjans and Diesmann, 2014) | Value (Bos et al., 2016) | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| K 4E, 4I | 795 | 675 | In-degree from 4I to 4E |
| K 4E, ext | 2100 | 1780 | External in-degree to 4E |
| D(ω) | none | truncated Gaussian | Delay distribution |
| de ± δde | 1.5 ± 0.75 ms | 1.5 ± 1.5 ms | Mean and standard deviation of excitatory delay |
| di ± δdi | 0.75 ± 0.375 ms | 0.75 ± 0.75 ms | Mean and standard deviation of inhibitory delay |
Parameter adaptions used here are introduced by Bos et al. (2016) compared to original microcircuit model. Kij denotes the in-degrees from population j to population i. The delays in the simulated networks were drawn from a truncated Gaussian distribution with the given mean and standard deviation. The mean-field approximation of the microcircuit by Potjans and Diesmann (2014) assumes the delay to be fixed at the mean value, which is specified in the toolbox by setting the parameter delay_dist to none.
