bernoulli_synapse – Static synapse with stochastic transmission¶
Description¶
Spikes are transmitted by bernoulli_synapse following a Bernoulli trial with success probability p_transmit. This synaptic mechanism was inspired by the results described in 1 of greater transmission probability for stronger excitatory connections and it was previously applied in 2 and [3].
bernoulli_synapse does not support any kind of plasticity. It simply stores the parameters target, weight, transmission probability, delay and receiver port for each connection.
Parameters¶
p_transmit |
real |
Transmission probability, must be between 0 and 1 |
Transmits¶
SpikeEvent, RateEvent, CurrentEvent, ConductanceEvent, DoubleDataEvent, DataLoggingRequest
