    Measurement of simulation speed: its relation to simulation accuracy

    This article presents an unbiased method for measuring simulation speed for compartmental simulators. The method measures how long it takes to simulate a neural circuit component at a given overall accuracy. B...

    Simulating the foveal cone receptive field

    The foveal midget ganglion cell has a receptive field center fed by one cone. The surround might also be fed by the same center cone since a cone terminal laterally connects to neighboring cones through electr...

    Retinal circuits for daylight: why ballplayers don’t wear shades

    A natural scene contains fine spatial detail at low contrast (Srinivasan et al., 1982), and to represent it as an optical image on the retina requires quite a lot of light This is because the number of photons ar...
