HippoUnit

A software tool for the automated testing and systematic comparison of detailed models of hippocampal neurons based on electrophysiological data. This package contains validation tests for models of hippocampus, based on the SciUnit framework and the NeuronUnit package. The purpose of this repository is to provide examples on how to run the validation tests of HippoUnit on models of the hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cell available in the literature and on ModelDB. Current tests cover somatic behavior and signal propagation and integration in apical dendrites of hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cell models. Feature errors: Z-score (the difference of model feature value from the exerimental mean feature value in the unit of the experimental SD.). git clone https://github.com/KaliLab/hippounit.git.
