The Brain Dynamics Toolbox for Matlab

Nonlinear dynamical systems are increasingly informing both theoretical and empirical branches of neuroscience. The Brain Dynamics Toolbox provides an interactive simulation platform for exploring such systems in Matlab. It supports the major classes of differential equations that arise in computational neuroscience: Ordinary Differential Equations, Delay Differential Equations and Stochastic Differential Equations. The design of the graphical interface fosters intuitive exploration of the dynamics while still supporting scripted parameter explorations and large-scale simulations. Although the toolbox is intended for dynamical models in computational neuroscience, it can be applied to dynamical systems from any domain.
