J. of Neurophys. 2009 [1]_ Parameters ---------- params : str | dict | None The path to the parameter file for constructing the network. If None, parameters loaded from default.json Default: None add_drives_from_params : bool If True, add drives as defined in the params-dict. NB this is mainly for backward-compatibility with HNN GUI, and will be deprecated in a future release. Default: False legacy_mode : bool Set to False by default. Enables matching HNN GUI output when drives are added suitably. Will be deprecated in a future release. Returns ------- net : Instance of Network object Network object used to store Notes ----- The network is composed of a square grid of pyramidal cells, arranged in two layers (L5 and L2). The default in-plane separation of the grid points is 1.0 um, and the layer separation 1307.4 um. These can be adjusted after the net is created using the set_cell_positions-method. An all-to-all connectivity pattern is applied between cells. Inhibitory basket cells are present at a 1:3-ratio. References ---------- .. [1] Jones, Stephanie R., et al.
