Open-source repository containing neural network models of the retina. The models in this repository are inspired by and partially contain adapted code of sinzlab/neuralpredictors.
For normal usage:
pip install openretina
For development:
git clone git@github.com:open-retina/open-retina.git
cd open-retina
pip install -e .
Before raising a PR please run:

make fix-formatting
# Run type checks and unit tests
make test-all
The model in openretina/hoefling_2024 was developed in the paper A chromatic feature detector in the retina signals visual context changes and can be cited as:

The paper Most discriminative stimuli for functional cell type clustering explains a method to automatically cluster and interpret the modeled neurons and was also used with above model (for code see ecker-lab/most-discriminative-stimuli).
