This repository collects minor bug fixes to the VirtualRetina Simulator1. The package was originally downloaded from here under INRIA CeCill C open-source licence.
The new official website of the simulator is: https://enas.inria.fr/virtual-retina.html
Example files and more extensive documentation can be found in the original package, this repository only holds the source code.
The bugs fixed:
- when loading a configuration with
<units>already specified, the attributes of the spiking channel are not transferred to the units- fixed with commit d3cdcad
- while random positioning was implemented, there was no xml attribute to set positional noise
!= 0- fixed with commit d3cdcad
- the saveMap command line option did not save the values of the attenuation signal
- fixed with commit 0c839cd

Project started December 2004.
Version 2.2.2 : December 2010.
This is the retina package. It contains VirtualRetina/, as well as other
libraries required by the software, that you may want to install.
Read
VirtualRetina/tutorial.pdf
for intructions.
Type " bash download_build_all.bash " for an automatic installation
of the library, which will:
1) Download external libraries MvaSpike and CImg and install them locally,
plus home-made library xmlParameters++, in directory External_Libraries/
2) Compile VirtualRetina.
