Tracking the provenance of data generation and analysis in NEST simulations

Cristiano Köhler, Moritz Kern, Sonja Grün, Michael Denker · Bernstein Conference 2024

Neural simulations using NEST are typically executed by a Python script that configures the simulator kernel, builds the network, and runs the simulation. The result is a series of files containing the simulated network activity, which can then be analyzed to provide insights into the neural activity. Despite the availability of file headers to identify the origin of the outputs, a user analyzing the data must still interpret the findings with respect to the simulation setup, network connectivity, and parameters of the neuronal and synaptic models.
