Base class for rate model with input noise
 
Description
+++++++++++
 
Base class for rate model with input noise of the form
 
.. math::
 
 \tau dX_i(t) = [ - \lambda X_i(t) + \mu
                + \phi( \sum w_{ij} \cdot \psi( X_j(t-d_{ij}) ) ) ] dt
                + [ \sqrt{\tau} \cdot \sigma ] dW_{i}(t)
 
or
 
.. math::
 
 \tau dX_i(t) = [ - \lambda X_i(t) + \mu
                + \text{mult_coupling_ex}( X_i(t) ) \cdot \\
                \phi( \sum w^{ > 0 }_{ij} \cdot \psi( X_j(t-d_{ij}) ) ) \\
                + \text{mult_coupling_in}( X_i(t) ) \cdot \\
                \phi( \sum w^{ < 0 }_{ij} \cdot \psi( X_j(t-d_{ij}) ) ) ] dt \\
                + [ \sqrt{\tau} \cdot \sigma ] dW_{i}(t)
 
This template class needs to be instantiated with a class
containing the following functions:
 
- ``input`` (nonlinearity that is applied to the input, either psi or phi)
- ``mult_coupling_ex`` (factor of multiplicative coupling for excitatory input)
- ``mult_coupling_in`` (factor of multiplicative coupling for inhibitory input)
 
The boolean parameter ``linear_summation`` determines whether the input function
is applied to the summed up incoming connections (True, default value, input
represents phi) or to each input individually (False, input represents psi).
In case of multiplicative coupling the nonlinearity is applied separately
to the summed excitatory and inhibitory inputs if ``linear_summation=True``.
