"... The authors have ... computationally manageable networks of moderate size consisting of 1,000 to 3,000 neurons with multiple intrinsic and synaptic properties. Experiments on these simulations demonstrated the presence of epileptiform behavior in the form of repetitive high-intensity population events (clonic behavior) or latch-up with near maximal activity (tonic behavior). ... Several simulations revealed the importance of random coincident inputs to shift a network from a low-activation to a high-activation epileptiform state. Finally, a simulated anticonvulsant acting on excitability tended to preferentially decrease tonic activity."

COMMENT
thresh   turns analog vec to BVBASE,1 vec separating at thresh (scalar or vec)
triplet  return location of a triplet in a vector
onoff    turns state vec on or off depending on values in other vecs
bpeval   used by backprop: vo=outp*(1-outp)*del
w        like where but sets chosen nums // modified from .wh in 1.23
dest.xing(src,tvec,thresh) determines where vector crosses in a positive direction 
src.updown(thresh,destlist) determines crossings in both directions+peaks
dest.snap(src,tvec,dt) interpolate src with tvec to prior dt step, saves only highest value
xzero    count 0 crossings by putting in a 1 or -1
negwrap  wrap negative values around to pos (with flag just set to 0)
indset(ind,val) sets spots indexed by ind to val
ismono([arg]) checks if a vector is monotonically increaseing (-1 decreasing)
count(num) count the number of nums in vec
scr.fewind(ind,veclist) // uses ind as index into other vecs
ind.findx(vecAlist,vecBlist) // uses ind as index into vecA's to load in vecB's
ind.sindx(vecAlist,vecBlist) // replace ind elements in vecA's with vecB's values
ind.sindv(vecAlist,valvec) // replace ind elements in vecA's with vals
scr.nind(ind,vec1,vec2[,vec3,vec4]) // uses ind to elim elems in other vecs
ind.keyind(key,vec1,vec2[,vec3,vec4]) // pick out bzw. values from vectors
ind.slct(key,args,veclist) // pick out bzw. values from vectors
ind.slor(key,args,veclist) // do OR rather than AND function of slct
vdest.intrp(flag) // interpolate numbers replacing numbers given as flag
v.insct(v1,v2)   // return v1 intersect v2
vdest.cull(vsrc,key)   // remove values found in key
vdest.redundout(vsrc[,INDFLAG])  // remove repeat values, with flag return indices
ind.mredundout(veclistA[,INDFLAG,veclistB]) // remove repeats from parallel vectors
v.cvlv(v1,v2)   // convolve v1 with v2
v2d      copy into a double block
d2v      copy out of a double block NB: same as vec.from_double()
smgs     rewrite of sumgauss form ivovect.cpp
smsy     sum syn potentials off a tvec
iwr      write integers
ird      read integers
ident     give pointer addresses and sizes
lcat     concatentate all vectors from a list
fread2   like vec.fread but uses flag==6 for unsigned int
vfill    fill vdest with multiple instances of vsrc until reach size
inv    return inverse of number multiplied by optional num
slone(src,val) select indices where ==VAL from sorted vector SRC
piva.join(pivb,veclista,veclistb) copies values from one set of vecs to other
Non-vector routines
isojt    compare 2 objects to see if they're of the same type
eqojt    compare 2 object pointers to see if they point to same thing
sumabs   return sum of absolute values
rnd    round off to nearest integer
