Subject: [NEST Users] Re: About the Izhikevich model
Dear Chao,
In case you are interested in developing a variant of the "standard" Izhikevich model from the literature to also include a refractory period, it would be ideal if you could do this in the modeling language NESTML. This allows you to express the model in an easy to understand, but expressive language, and to automatically generate C++ code for it so it can be used in NEST Simulator. In fact, NESTML already has a similar Izhikevich variant in the models database at
https://github.com/nest/nestml/blob/master/models/neurons; please see the "izhikevich_psc_alpha.nestml" file in that directory (whereas "izhikevich.nestml" is the standard model).
With kind regards,
Charl

Dear NEST Community,
When I use NEST, I find that Izhikevich model has no refractory period. Whether there is a specific reason for this setting or whether the model itself does not have this refractory period? After all, according to my understanding, all neurons in biology have the characteristics of refractory period.
I would be happy to get any feedback on it.
Thanks,
Chao.
