The package haeusler_etal_2003.zip contains the software for the simulations for figure 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 of the article Perspectives of the high dimensional dynamics of neural microcircuits from the point of view of low dimensional readouts.

Installation

If you have Linux or Windows it should basically suffice to unpack the zip files in a directory of your choice and to add this directory to your Matlab search path.

Here is a step by step installation procedure:


1. Install the Learning-Tool package.
2. Download the haeusler_etal_2003 package from above.
3. Unzip the file (e.g. using WinZip). This will create a subdirectory haeusler_etal_2003.
4. Start Matlab and change into the directory haeusler_etal_2003
5. Add the path haeusler_etal_2003 to the Matlab search path; e. g:
   • addpath('/yourpath/haeusler_etal_2003');
   • addpath('c:\yourpath\haeusler_etal_2003');
6. Add the lsm path 'yourpath/lsm' to the Matlab search path where lsm_startup resides; e. g:
   • addpath('/yourpath/lsm');
   • addpath('c:\yourpath\lsm');
