I agree, a really cool project which I would imagine could be extended to a "real" model without a ton of work. I imagine the amount of work to fork a javascript library which integrated a network of H-H model neurons to make it output this type of visualization would be far more work than adding the H-H piece to this code. I could be wrong but at first blush, that's how I see it.
- delluminatus 12y agoI think it would be quite a bit of work to integrate the H-H model or any model of a biological brain with this visualization. This is because the visualization is basically just a graph, with axons as edges and neurons as nodes, and then signals are propagated with extremely simple graph-traversal style logic. On the other hand, the H-H model tries to deal with the physical reality of the human brain so it is much more complicated and relies on some data (like axon width) that simply doesn't exist here. It would be possible and potentially interesting, for sure, but probably more work than you might think.
