1. Computational Cognitive Neuroscience Lab Today: First session

2. Computational Cognitive Neuroscience Lab »Today: »Getting Started with IdentiKey, X11 »PDP++ features »Open sims »Simulator tour »Math review »Goals

3. IdentiKey »If you don’t have one »Click ‘Set IdentiKey` on the login screen »Or tell me you need one!

4. PDP++ features »Netview »Graphical display of network connections, and some different variables (activation, weights, etc.) »Gridlog »Graphical display of variables over time (or simulation steps »Enviroview »Shows all the different input patterns presented to the network during the simulation

5. Goals »Run some simulations! »After the lab you should “understand how net excitatory input reflects the degree of match between the input pattern and the weights.” p.57
