Statistics of symmetry measure for networks of neurons (Esposito et al. 2014)

The code reproduces Figures 1, 2, 3A and 3C from Esposito et al "Measuring symmetry, asymmetry and randomness in neural networks". It provides the statistics of the symmetry measure defined in the paper for networks of neurons with random connections drawn from uniform and gaussian distributions.

Model Type: Realistic Network

Model Concept(s): Connectivity matrix
