Hi all,
I have developed a parallel multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (NSGA-II) and would like to interface it with neuron.
I know how to setup model anatomy and biophysics and numerical instrumentation in python and then run and plot the results using matplotlib.
But I still can't figure out how to import a neuroml file using python. If anyone can shed any light on this matter, I would very much appreciate it!
Thanks
David

With the GUI, start a
NEURONMainMenu/Build/CellBuilder
and select the "Management" page followed by "Import" radio buttons.
In the menu bar "Import" select the NeuroML menu item then in the
file chooser that pops up, select the neuroml file.

This assumes that the NeuroML version 2 from several years ago remains the
format of your file. If not, please send the file to me and I'll work on updating the
importer.

If you wish to do this under program control without showing windows, try

Code: Select all

{load_file("stdgui.hoc")}
{load_file("celbild.hoc")}
objref cb
cb = new CellBuild(0)
cb.manage.neuroml("neuromlfilename")
cb.cexport(1) // turn continuous_create on
