Introduction¶
This repository contains python exercises accompanying the book Neuronal Dynamics by Wulfram Gerstner, Werner M. Kistler, Richard Naud and Liam Paninski. References to relevant chapters will be added in the Teaching Materials section of the book homepage.
Quickstart¶
See the setup instructions for details on how to install the python classes needed for the exercises.
To install the exercises with anaconda/miniconda (recommended) execute:
conda install -c brian-team -c epfl-lcn neurodynex
Alternatively, you can use pip to install the exercises:
pip install --upgrade neurodynex
See the indiviual exercises - they contain instructions on how to use the python code to solve them.
Brian1¶
All exercises are rewritten and use the more recent Brian2 Simulator. The old brian1 exercises are available on the brian1 branch.
Requirements¶
The following requirements should be met:
- Either Python 2.7 or 3.4
- Brian2 Simulator 2.0b4
- Numpy
- Matplotlib
- Scipy (only required in some exercises)
If you are not using anaconda/miniconda, you can install all requirements by running:
pip install -r requirements.txt
