Part 1, Part 2 if you don’t run the simulations, and Part 2 if you run the simulations yourself

If you get stuck on part 1, you can download some sample perceptron code here in matlab or here in python notebook

Submit your code and written answers to Canvas.

If you would like to try the simulations from part 2 of the problem set, there is a tutorial for the software Electrophysiology of the Neuron (EOTN). The software can be found here: EOTN

You can download the .cc4 file for the problem set simulations here, here

If you are running the simulations yourself for part 2 of the problem set, you need to run an executable file that enables superuser mode in order to change the IPSC delay kinetics. Here is a link to do that: ccwin_poweruser.exe

Here is the original book (the book is out of print, but there is a pdf) that David McCormick (Yale University) and John Huguenard wrote to develop some simple exercises for teaching in a dry lab the basics of resting membrane potentials, stimulation, synapses, action potentials, synaptic currents, etc.

And here is a link to the archived parameter files to be used for the exercises in the book: eotn_parameters_v4.tgz

If you are interested, you can see a historical web page describing the book here
