Event neural assembly Simulation
http://enas.gforge.inria.fr/v2/
EnaS is a library providing numerical tools for the mesoscopic simulation of
neural networks (temporal computations in micro-columns models or spiking neural
networks) and the analysis of spike trains either coming from neural simulators or
from biological experiments.
Virtual Retina
http://www-sop.inria.fr/neuromathcomp/public/software/virtualretina/
Virtual Retina is a simulation software developed at Inria Sophia Antipolis Mediterannee
by Adrien Wohrer during his Ph.D. (2005-2008) supervised by Pierre Kornprobst
and Thierry Vieville.
Virtual Retina allows large-scale simulations of biologically-plausible retinas,
with customizable parameters, and different possible biological features
