########################################################### Reduce a hippocampus network model using Amsalem et al 2020 ########################################################### This notebook is intended for applying a neuron reduction algorithm by Oren Amsalem [:ref:`1 `][:ref:`2 `] to a neuronal circuit in SONATA [:ref:`3 `] format. Principle --------- A complex neuron morphology is reduced to a simple one as described on the image below. We have the leftmost original morphology that becomes the rightmost reduced morphology. We apply this algorithm to all neurons with morphologies in a given neuronal circuit. .. image:: images/principle.png More examples of reduced morphologies: .. image:: images/examples.png References ---------- .. _net_red_1: [1] https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13932-6 .. _net_red_2: [2] https://github.com/orena1/neuron_reduce .. _net_red_3: [3] https://github.com/AllenInstitute/sonata
