A rate model of cortical networks composed of RS, FS and LTS neurons. Synaptic depression is modelled according to the Tsodyks-Markram scheme.
Model Type: Realistic Network
Cell Type(s): Neocortex fast spiking (FS) interneuron; Neocortex spiking regular (RS) neuron; Neocortex spiking low threshold (LTS) neuron
Model Concept(s): Short-term Synaptic Plasticity; Rate-coding model neurons
Simulation Environment: C or C++ program
Implementer(s): Golomb, David [golomb at bgu.ac.il]
