spike_dilutor – Repeat incoming spikes with a certain probability

Description

The device repeats incoming spikes with a certain probability. Targets will receive different spike trains.

In parallel simulations, a copy of the device is present on each process and spikes are collected only from local sources.

Deprecated model

spike_dilutor is deprecated because it does not work with multiple threads. To create connections that transmit spikes with a given probability, use bernoulli_synapse instead.

Does not work with threads

spike_dilutor only works in single-threaded simulations. It can be used with MPI-parallel simulations.

Parameters

p_copy

Copy probability

Sends

SpikeEvent
