Topographica: building and analyzing map-level simulations from Python, C/C++, MATLAB, NEST, or NEURON components

Many neural regions are arranged into two-dimensional topographic maps, such as the retinotopic maps in mammalian visual cortex. Computational simulations have led to valuable insights about how cortical topography develops and functions, but further progress has been hindered by the lack of appropr...
