NESTML Dopa Synapse - Error during parsing

by Jona Scholz

Dear NESTML enthusiasts, I'm trying to do the NESTML dopamine-modulated STDP synapse tutorial ( https://nestml.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/stdp_dopa_synapse/stdp_do…) and get an error during the first code generation (see bottom of the message). This is the line where it fails: NESTCodeGeneratorUtils.generate_code_for("../../../models/neurons/iaf_psc_delta_neuron.nestml", nestml_stdp_dopa_model, ...) I am running the tutorial notebook as is, except for a change in the neuron model path. I changed it like this: NESTCodeGeneratorUtils.generate_code_for("iaf_psc_delta_neuron.nestml", nestml_stdp_dopa_model, ...) With this model https://github.com/nest/nestml/blob/master/models/neurons/iaf_psc_delta_neu… in the same folder as the notebook. I am using NESTML version 8.0.0rc3 and Nest 3.8. If I only generate code for the neuron model everything is fine. module_name, neuron_model_name = NESTCodeGeneratorUtils.generate_code_for( "iaf_psc_delta_neuron.nestml") [100%] Built target nestml_24dea23d173448c9b2a52d4f6a232dbd_module_module Install the project... Additionally, in the SFA tutorial I am able to change the neuron model and run it without any problems ( https://nestml.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/spike_frequency_adaptatio… ). With all of that said, here is the error: [1,GLOBAL, INFO]: List of files that will be processed: [2,GLOBAL, INFO]: /home/jona/rstdp-gym/iaf_psc_delta_neuron.nestml [3,GLOBAL, INFO]: /home/jona/rstdp-gym/neuromodulated_stdp_synapse.nestml [4,GLOBAL, INFO]: Target platform code will be generated in directory: '/home/jona/rstdp-gym/target' [5,GLOBAL, INFO]: Target platform code will be installed in directory: '/tmp/nestml_target_8uqeeze7' -- N E S T -- Copyright (C) 2004 The NEST Initiative Version: 3.8.0 Built: Aug 27 2024 04:33:09 This program is provided AS IS and comes with NO WARRANTY.

Simulation execution time for extended runs

by Peter Mason

The simulation of C.elegans now is implemented in a multi processing environment. The simulation of each individual object and various observation tools such as visualisation, matplotlib spike data plotting and configuration of the simulation parameters have their own process. An issue has arisen with only one object being simulated in that the execution 'time' for the constant 'simulation step time', increases with subsequent call to pynn.nest.Simulate(self.simulation_step). I presume nest continues the simulation from the previous iteration state. A crude plot suggests that the time increase is linear. Eventually the simulation stalls. I have a recorder connected to each of the 302 nodes and multiple recorders connected to some of the nodes. These use multiprocessor queues and a manged list to transfer data and as far as I can tell they do not overflow. I have disabled the recorders by not connecting them to the neurons and the phenomenon persists. It looks as if the issue is in the nest simulation. I have increased the process priority to -1. It does not help. Also does anyone know of the work of Ramin Hasani at Wien. He seems to have done the same thing and is now using 19 neurons to steer a car. How can I get a copy of the report of work done by him and his students? Peter Mason

NEST & NESTML do things right :)

by Hans Ekkehard Plesser

Dear NEST Users, I have just published a paper in Frontiers in Neuroinformatics Plesser HE (2024) Commentary: Accelerating spiking neural network simulations with PymoNNto and PymoNNtorch. Front. Neuroinform. 18:1446620. doi: 10.3389/fninf.2024.1446620 confirming that NEST/NESTML provide correct simulations. I just wanted to let you know about this result because a paper earlier this year had included a figure showing that NEST got different results than several other simulators. It turned out that exact integration is exact as the name says, while forward Euler is not.

MPI-based error on v3.8

by Ady Sharma

Hi all! What I'm doing: I've used v2.20.2 on HPC (bwForCluster NEMO) for my large-scale simulations involving structural plasticity. Now I'm trying to move to v3.8. How am I doing this? I built NESTv3.8 on my HPC workspace following the cmake instructions mentioned at: https://nest-simulator.readthedocs.io/en/v3.8/installation/cmake_options.ht… Here's an overview of my build and installation commands: ``` source /<some_path>/NESTv3.8/bin/activate # activate a fresh python venv (v3.9.7) [optional] module load mpi/openmpi/4.0-gnu-9.2 # cmake version 3.30.4 cmake --debug-find \ -DMPI_C_COMPILER=$(which mpicc) \ -DMPI_CXX_COMPILER=$(which mpicxx) \ -DMPI_HOME=$(which mpirun) \ -Dwith-mpi=ON \ -Dwith-openmp=ON \ -DCYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/<some_path>/intel/oneapi/2022.1/intelpython/latest/bin/cython \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/<some_path>/nest-simulator-3.8-build \ /<path_to_extracted_tar>/nest-simulator-3.8/ # if I don't specify the Cython path, cmake picks an outdated (uncompatible) cython version. I did not try the -Dcythonize-pynest=OFF option because I don't know how to build PyNEST from a pre-cythonized pynestkernel.pyx. make make install make installcheck ``` Once this finishes, I do the usual `source`-ing of `nest_vars.sh`. I also add the NEST path to my python venv's `site-packages`. This has always worked for all NEST versions I ever installed. `installcheck` finishes with 1 error. See below: ``` THE NEST TESTSUITE DISCOVERED PROBLEMS The following tests failed | regressiontests.issue-1703.py Please report test failures by creating an issue at https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/issues --------------------------------------------------------------------------- make[3]: *** [CMakeFiles/installcheck] Error 1 make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/installcheck.dir/all] Error 2 make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/installcheck.dir/rule] Error 2 make: *** [installcheck] Error 2 ``` THE WARNING: Ignoring this, if I proceed with pyNEST in the venv by `import nest`, I get the following warning: ``` -------------------------------------------------------------------------- WARNING: There is at least non-excluded one OpenFabrics device found, but there are no active ports detected (or Open MPI was unable to use them). This is most certainly not what you wanted. Check your cables, subnet manager configuration, etc. The openib BTL will be ignored for this job.

See the file LICENSE for details. Problems or suggestions? Visit https://www.nest-simulator.org Type 'nest.help()' to find out more about NEST. ``` THE CRASH: If I ignore this warning and proceed to submit a job, the execution eventually crashes with exit code: 134. If you'd like to see the crash dump, check this MD file on GitLab.: https://gitlab.rz.uni-freiburg.de/as2013/mpi-hpc-nestv3.8.git Any idea what's going wrong here? If I follow the same build and installation steps on my local machine (other than specifying the Cython path in cmake; because no need). Neither do I get any warnings nor does any simulation crash. I'm guessing this has to do with the build and installation on the cluster. I'd appreciate any input. Thanks! Best, Ady

aeif_cond_beta_multisynapse in NESTML

by tanguy.damart＠protonmail.com

Hello everyone, Is there a NESTML version of the NEST model aeif_cond_beta_multisynapse ? (https://nest-simulator.readthedocs.io/en/stable/models/aeif_cond_beta_multi…) If not, is there any difficulties that I might face implementing it in NESTML that I need to be aware of ? (Like how to handle multiple types of synapses). Best, Tanguy

Enhancement of C++ implementation of DumpLayerConnections()

by Xavier Otazu

Hi! After using some PyNEST functions and modifying the C++ implementation of DumpLayerConnections(), I was thinking on a possible further improvement of this function (or creating a new function). But since I do not know the design and architecture of C++ nestkernel code, I prefer to ask. In my code I normalize the presynaptic connections of every neuron. To do this, I originally do something like for i in range(len(target_layer)) conn[i] = nest.GetConnections(source_layer, target_layer, synapse_model) normalize(conn) Since I am using MPI and the loop iterates over all the neurons, I modified the previous code to local_nodes = nest.GetLocalNodeCollection(target_layer) local_nodes = nest.NodeCollection(local_nodes) for i in range(len(local_nodes)) conn[i] = nest.GetConnections(source_layer, local_nodes, synapse_model) normalize(conn) This last code is faster that the previous one (I guess that local_nodes variable is local to every MPI process and, as a consequence, GetConnections() is more efficient because it only works with local nodes instead of with all of them). Using the idea of the GetLocalNodeCollection(), I was thinking it could be used into the C++ implementation of DumpLayerConnections(). Presently, this function obtain all the connections between source and target layers. Could it be possible to call the equivalent C++ implementation of GetLocalCollection()? I understand that the problem is that, since DumpLayerConnections() needs the spatial information of the layers, the node collections obtained with GetLocalNodeCollection() (I guess similarly its C++ implementation) does not have this spatial information. As a second possibility, I was thinking on adding a new method (GetSpatialInformation()) and enhancing DumpLayerConnections() (or add a new function). The GetSpatialInformation() function could return the spatial information of a collection of nodes (the ones obtained by GetLocalNodeCollection() ). The DumpLayerConnections() (or a new function) could be enhanced by changing the target layer parameter to a pair of parameters that contain the local nodes collection and their spatial information. Something like DumpLaterConnections(source_layer, local_nodes_collection, spatial_information, synapse_model). This way DumpLayerConnections() will only used local nodes and would be much faster. Sorry for the technical email. Xavier
