Introduction
===========

Neuron_Reduce provides an analytical method for reducing neuron model complexity. It enables the mapping of synapses and active ion channels to a computationally simpler model while accelerating simulation speed by up to 200-fold for inputs consisting of thousands of dendritic synapses. Full details are available in the accompanied paper - https://doi.org/10.1101/506485

Installation
===========

``` pip install --user neuron_reduce```

Quick Start
===========
The following code show the main function that is used to reduce a complex cell. 
```python
complex_cell  # The model cell
synapses_list # A list of all synapse on this cell
netcon_list   # A list of all netcons for the synapses on the cell

import neuron_reduce
reduced_cell, synapses_list, netcons_list =  neuron_reduce.subtree_reductor(complex_cell, synapses_list, netcons_list)
```

Detailed example
===========

Copy example folder from github
```bash
git clone https://github.com/orena1/neuron_reduce.git
```

Go to example folder
```bash
cd neuron_reduce
cd example
nrnivmodl mod #compile the mod files
```

Open python and run the following code


```python
from __future__ import division
from neuron import gui,h
import numpy as np
import neuron_reduce
import time
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt



#Create a L5_PC model

h.run()
print('complex cell simulation time {:.4f}'.format(time.time()-st))

#apply Neuron_Reduce to simplify the cell

#Running the simulation again but now on the reduced cell

#plotting the results
plt.figure()

plt.plot(time_v, reduced_celll_v,  label='redcued cell')
plt.show()
