izhikevich_psc_alpha - Detailed Izhikevich neuron model with alpha-kernel post-synaptic current
Description
Implementation of the simple spiking neuron model introduced by Izhikevich [1], with membrane potential in (milli)volt and current-based synapses.
The dynamics are given by:
On each spike arrival, the membrane potential is subject to an alpha-kernel current of the form:
