Description

Robert and I have discussed the possibility of supporting systems defined in terms of maps instead of odes. We ended up considering an StateUpdate element. For example, take the Logistic map: x_{n+1} = mu * x_n * (1 - x_n) where mu is a parameter. The dynamics would be defined as something like this:

<Dynamics>
        <StateVariable name="x" dimension="none" exposure="x"/>
        <StateUpdate variable="x" value="mu * x * (1 - x)"/>
</Dynamics>

There are several discrete time (a.k.a maps) neuronal models:

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing how jLEMS currently represents and interprets Dynamics and determine the design needed for StateUpdate elements; done means discrete map-based dynamics such as the Logistic map can be represented and supported.
