hbp_nrp_cle.brainsim.nengo.NengoCommunicationAdapter module

The brain communication adapter for the Nengo default simulator

class NengoCommunicationAdapter(nengo_simulation_state)[source]

Bases: hbp_nrp_cle.brainsim.common.__AbstractCommunicationAdapter.AbstractCommunicationAdapter

Represents the communication adapter to the neuronal simulator

create_view(population, sl)[source]

Creates a view of the given population

Parameters

  • population – The base population

  • sl – The slice of the population that represents the view

initialize()[source]

Marks the Nengo adapter as initialized

is_population(population)[source]

Determines whether the given object is a population

Parameters

population – The object that may be a population

register_spike_sink(populations, spike_detector_type, **params)[source]

Requests a communication object with the given spike detector type for the given set of neurons

Parameters

  • populations – A reference to the populations which should be connected to the spike detector

  • spike_detector_type – A spike detector type (see documentation for a list of allowed values)

  • params – A dictionary of configuration parameters

Returns

A Communication object or a group of objects

register_spike_source(populations, spike_generator_type, **params)[source]

Requests a communication object with the given spike generator type for the given set of neurons

Parameters

  • populations – A reference to the populations to which the spike generator should be connected

  • spike_generator_type – A spike generator type (see documentation or a list of allowed values)

  • params – A dictionary of configuration parameters

Returns

A communication object or a group of objects
