Name:poisson_generator_ps - simulate neuron firing with Poisson processes
(with arbitrary dead time) statistics and exact timing
Description:
The poisson_generator_ps generator simulates a neuron firing with Poisson
statistics (with dead time), ie, exponentially distributed interspike
intervals plus constant dead time, spike events have exact timing
(i.e. not binned).
Parameters:
The following parameters appear in the element's status dictionary:
rate - mean firing rate. (double, var)
dead_time - minimal time between two spikes. (double, var)
Sends:
SpikeEvent
Remarks:
- This generator must be connected to all its targets using the
same synapse model. Failure to do so will only be detected at
runtime.
- This generator has only been validated in a very basic manner.
