An adaptive spiking neural network with Hebbian learning

This paper will describe a numerical approach to simulating biologically-plausible spiking neural networks. These are time dependent neural networks with realistic models for the neurons (Hodgkin-Huxley). In addition the learning is biologically plausible as well, being a Hebbian approach based on spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP). To make the approach very general and flexible, neurogenesis and synaptogenesis have been implemented, which allows the code to automatically add or remove neurons (or synapses) as required.
