stdp_pl_synapse_hom – Synapse type for spike-timing dependent plasticity with power law

Description

stdp_pl_synapse is a connector to create synapses with spike time dependent plasticity using homoegeneous parameters (as defined in 1).

Parameters

tau_plus	ms	Time constant of STDP window, potentiation (tau_minus defined in postsynaptic neuron)
lambda	real	Learning rate
alpha	real	Asymmetry parameter (scales depressing increments as alpha*lambda)
mu	real	Weight dependence exponent, potentiation

Remarks:

The parameters can only be set by SetDefaults and apply to all synapses of the model.
