Large-Scale Modeling of Epileptic Seizures: Scaling Properties of Two Parallel Neuronal Network Simulation Algorithms

Figure 1

Example of emergent behavior produced by this type of simulation (using Verdandi). Seizure-like oscillation in a patch of 90 K neurons as displayed by the pseudo-EEG. Below are the action potential trains of ten representative cells of each kind: superficial pyramidal cells (SPYR), deep pyramidal cells (DPYR), large basket cells (BASK), and chandelier cells (CHAN). The ten cells are selected from different locations in the simulated network.
