Diameter_pow

Function Output Type : Real

Calculated : At each tracing point

Returns a value : For each compartment

Output:

Metric	Total_Sum	#Compartments (considered)	#Compartments (discarded)	Minimum	Average	Maximum	S.D.
Diameter_pow	398.65	1102	(0)	0.164317	0.361751	37.0457	2.35898

*All units are in microns

Values to consider : All

Output Interpretation :

In Rall’s ratio which is referred as Pk uses the formula [(d1^rall+d2^rall)/(bifurcDiam^rall)], which uses the diameter raised to the rall power. Hence we added metrics such as Diameter_pow, which could be useful for comparison between related metrics. In general, we want to leave this decision about how to use a particular function of their own analysis.

Total_Sum = 398.65 gives Total_Sum, Minimum = 0.164317 gives minimum, Maximum = 37.0457 gives maximum for given input neuron.
