Abstract [en]

This report is about the thesis work PyNestGUI which goal was to make a graphical interface to the neuron simulator NEST. The report's first part is about how NEST works well as which graphical interface that where selected. The report then continues go through what a neuron is and how it works superficial. The final section of the report will cover how PyNestGUI is build and how the program works. The problem that the program solves is that it builds a model in NEST with user settings and connects neurons in a similar way as a minicolumn are interconnected. The programs purpose was that it would help the user to change the variables in an easy manner and produce results that can be visualized and save for later analysis. Results that the the program can plot from the simulation is from voltmeters and a spike detector connected all neurons. The program can also display an animation of the simulation so that the user will be able to see when and which neurons spikes and their connections.

Abstract [sv]

Den här rapporten handlar om examensarbetet PyNestGUI som gick ut på att göra ett grafiskt gränssnitt till neuronsimulatorn NEST. Rapportens första del handlar om hur NEST fungerar samt vilket grafiskt gränssnitt som valdes ut. Sedan fortsätter rapporten med att ytligt gå igenom vad en neuron är och hur den fungerar. Sista delen av rapporten går igenom hur PyNestGUI är uppbyggt och hur programmet fungerar. Problemet som programmet löser är att den bygger upp en modell i NEST med användarens inställningar och kopplar ihop neuroner på liknande sätt som en minikolumn är sammankopplad. Programmets syfte var att det skulle hjälpa användaren kunna ändra på variabler på ett lätt sätt samt ge resultat som kan visualiseras och som användaren skulle kunna spara. Resultat som programmet kan visa av simuleringen är voltmätare och spikdetektor på samtliga neuroner. Programmet kan också visa en animation av simuleringen så att användaren ska kunna se när neuroner spikar och vilka dessa neuroner är sammankopplade med.
