There is a conductance-based version of the model by Vogels and Abbott (2005) as used in the Brette et al (2007) simulator review paper. The example is currently only available in SLI, not in Python. You can find it under examples/Brette_et_al_2007. See the benchmark.sli file in that directory for information in how to run the benchmark.

Hi,

I'm trying to port to NEST this "conductance-based" network from Brian:

https://brian2.readthedocs.io/en/stable/examples/frompapers.Stimberg_et_al_2018.example_1_COBA.html

I'm unable to reproduce their results (qualitatively - I'm not expecting identical results since I assume RNGs, solvers and other implementation details differ in many ways). Is there any publicly available example of a random balanced network with conductance based synapses? From what I've seen, all the brunel-style example networks are current based (as in the original paper).

Thanks in advance,

Adam
