Inputs

SpikingNN provides several synthetic inputs:

• constant rate
• step current
• inhomogenous Poisson process

Inputs can also form a InputPopulation that behaves similar to a Population.

Constant Rate

A constant rate input fires at a fixed frequency.

ConstantRate
evaluate!(::ConstantRate, ::Integer; ::Real)

Step Current

A step current input is low until a fixed time step, then it is high.

StepCurrent
evaluate!(::StepCurrent, ::Integer; ::Real)

Inhomogenous Poisson Input Process

An input that behaves like an inhomogenous Poisson process given by a provided instantaneous rate function.

PoissonInput
evaluate!(::PoissonInput, ::Integer; ::Real)

Input Population

InputPopulation
evaluate!(::InputPopulation, ::Integer; ::Real)
