A simple single cell model
Level: beginner Type: user documentation
This tutorial will give you an intro into building a morphology from an arbor.segment_tree, region and locset expressions and into decors and cell decorations.
Furthermore will you learn about building an arbor.cable_cell object, arbor.single_cell_model object as well as running a simulation and visualising the results.
Advanced
GPU and profiling
Level: advanced Type: user documentation
This tutorial will show you how to build an arbor.context using a GPU. This requires that you have built Arbor with GPU support enabled. Further you will learn to build an arbor.domain_decomposition and provide an arbor.partition_hint. Finally you will profile an Arbor simulation using arbor.meter_manager.
A single cell model from the Allen Brain Atlas
Level: advanced Type: user documentation
This tutorial will teach you how to take a model from the Allen Brain Atlas,
load a morphology from an swc file and a parameter fit file and apply it to an arbor.decor. It will further show you how to build an arbor.cable_cell representative of the cell in the model and an arbor.recipe reflective of the cell stimulation in the model. Finally you will be running a simulation and visualising these results.
A simple dendrite
Level: advanced Type: user documentation
In this tutorial you will learn how to create a simulation recipe of a single dendrite. How to place probes on the morphology and running the simulation and extracting the results and finally investigate the influence of control volume policies.
