Download CoCoMac.org cortical connectivity data, model it as a network, and simulate epileptic spreading through the network using a simple activation spreading function.
To use:
1. Unzip the files into a directory, change to that directory (or add it to
your path)
2. Make a text file listing cocomac brain areas, one per line, e.g.:
V1
V2
V3
etc.
You will be asked to supply this file by the program.
3. Create an account at www.cocomac.org
4. Modify download.m where it says this:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%%%%%%%% ENTER COCOMAC USERNAME %%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%%%%%%%% AND PASSWORD! %%%%%%%%%%%%%
user = '';
pass = '';
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
5. Run 'gui.m' (type gui at the Matlab command prompt)
6. See inside the directory for various logs created when the program runs.
Please note, this is just an experiment - expect bugs aplenty!
