Characteristic columnar connectivity caters to cortical computation: Replication, simulation, and evaluation of a microcircuit model.

"in the following sections we provide details of our implementation of the microcircuit model that is publicly available at zenodo (schulte to brinke et al ) and compare it to the model described in hausler and maass ( ) whose implementation is available at modeldb (mcdougal et al ; accession number 82385 https://senselab med yale edu/modeldb/showmodel ?"

"all of them were different from the values reported in the paper and it was hard to track them down in the matlab code because the final scaling parameter values were not set directly but defined by somewhat convoluted calculations distributed over multiple source code files."
