I've built a small network, trying to train it. Is that possible, I don't whether NEURON is a dynamic or not?
Can Neuron support synaptic plasticity or changing the weight adaptively?
Can NEURON model a "memory" network?

Yes. What learning rule do you have in mind?Kane wrote:I've built a small network, trying to train it. Is that possible
What do you mean by "dynamic"?I don't whether NEURON is a dynamic or not?
If you can describe the rule for plasticity by a formula or algorithm, it can be implemented.Can Neuron support synaptic plasticity or changing the weight adaptively?

dynamic means it's not a time-invariant system.ted wrote:Yes. What learning rule do you have in mind?Kane wrote:I've built a small network, trying to train it.

I'm a neurologist, finding it's too hard to program in NEURON. If NEURON is going to be widely used, it should be much easier to use.
Anyway, thanks for your help, and I will keep on it.

If by this you mean "parameters can change in the course of a simulation" the answer is yes, NEURON is "dynamic."Kane wrote:dynamic means it's not a time-invariant system.
NEURON does lack built-in learning rules and GUI tools for specifying them. I wonder if NEST or a connectionist simulator would be more to your liking.I'm a neurologist, finding it's too hard to program in NEURON.
