Interest in exploring the computational properties of networks of parallel distributed processing elements has increased due to studies of the structure and function of biological neural networks. Much of the current research involves numerical simulations of these types of networks. GENESIS (GEneral NEtwork SImulation System) and XODUS (X-based Ouput and Display Utility for Simulators) are a result of that interest. The two systems combined provides a standardized and flexible means of constructing neural networks. The structure of GENESIS follows the actual biological network much more closely than artificial neural networks. This paper presents a simple simulation of the cable properties of a dendritic cable consisting of twenty compartments and one soma. The results of the simulation are then compared to actual cable metrics.
由于对生物神经网络的结构和功能进行了研究，人们对探索并行分布式处理元件网络的计算特性的兴趣有所增加。当前的许多研究都涉及这类网络的数值模拟。GENESIS（通用网络模拟系统）和XODUS（模拟器基于X的输出和显示实用程序）就是这种兴趣的产物。这两个系统相结合提供了一种构建神经网络的标准化且灵活的方法。GENESIS的结构比人工神经网络更紧密地遵循实际的生物网络。本文展示了一个由二十个隔室和一个胞体组成的树突状电缆的电缆特性的简单模拟。然后将模拟结果与实际的电缆指标进行比较。
