Detailed Description

Base class to all neuron types.

Provides the interface for updating the membrane potential triggered by synapses mounted to the neuron.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void Neuron::updatePSR	(	double	psr,
		double	psr_diff,
		Time	time
	)			`[inline, virtual]`

Triggered when the PSP of an active input synapse changes.

Reports a jump of the PSP of an input synapse

Parameters:

	psr	The new value of the postsynaptic response
	psr_diff	Recent change of the postsynaptic response
	time	The simulation time at which the change occurred

virtual void Neuron::updatePSRSlope	(	double	psr_slope,
		double	prs_slope_diff,
		Time	time
	)			`[inline, virtual]`

Triggered when the PSP slope of an active input synapse changes.

Reports a change of the PSP slope (derivative of the PSP amplitude) of an input synapse

Parameters:

	psr_slope	The new value of the slope
	psr_slope_diff	Recent change of the slope
	time	The simulation time at which the change occurred
