Before building more complex neural networks in #NESTSimulator, it is crucial to understand its connections rules. I’ve put together an overview of all available rules, which mainly follows NEST's documentation (https://nest-simulator.readthedocs.io/en/stable/synapses/connectivity_concepts.html#connectivity-concepts)

Connectivity concepts — NEST Simulator Documentation

This is the documentation index for the NEST, a simulator for spiking neuronal networks.

Very interesting work by Confavreux and colleagues on #MetaLearning families of #plasticity rules in #RecurrentSpikingNetworks using simulation-based inference 👌

There is substantial experimental evidence that learning and memory-related behaviours rely on local synaptic changes, but the search for distinct plasticity rules has been driven by human...
