This is the neural network model and accompanying scripts to run and analyze the model presented in:

"A computational model of inhibitory control in frontal cortex and basal ganglia." Wiecki, T.V. & Frank, M.J., Psychological Review, 2013

To run the selective response inhibition simulations:

python emergent.py --run -b 4 -g saccade

To run the stop-signal simulations:

python emergent.py --run -b 4 -g stopsignal

This should populate the logs directory. After this is finished (might take quite some time), run:

python emergent.py --analyze -b 4 -g saccade
python emergent.py --analyze -b 4 -g stopsignal

This should populate the plots subdirectories. Note that plots used in the final paper are often edited to improve quality.
