Bluepy is a Python library for accessing BlueBrain circuit models.
The main two interface classes exposed are Circuit
and Simulation
.
Circuit
corresponds to the static structure of a neural network, i.e.:
- cell positions / properties
- synapse positions / properties
- detailed morphologies
- electrical models
- subcellular data (gene expressions, protein concentrations)
- spatial index of morphology segments
- spatial index of synapses
Simulation
corresponds to the result of a dynamic simulation of the network, i.e. spikes, voltage traces and other binary reports recording neural activity.
Most of |name| methods return pandas Series or DataFrames, indexed in a way to facilitate combining data from different sources (for instance, synapse reports with corresponding synapse positions).
Among other dependencies, |name| relies on BBP-provided libraries:
- MorphIO for access to detailed morphologies
- Brion for access to binary simulation reports
- bluepy_configfile for BlueConfig parsing
- libFLATIndex for access to segment / synapse spatial indices
