[nengo-user] STDP-based learning in Nengo

[Trevor Bekolay]

Hi Peter,

STDP is indeed implemented in Nengo, but it hasn't been used in any models,
so the interface to using it is incomplete.

You can see the STDPTermination here:
https://github.com/ctn-waterloo/nengo_1.4/blob/master/simulator/src/java/main/ca/nengo/model/plasticity/impl/STDPTermination.java

But in order to use it easily, the NEFEnsemble needs an add function to add
that termination. The function would be essentially identical to the
addBCMTermination function shown here:
https://github.com/ctn-waterloo/nengo_1.4/blob/master/simulator/src/java/main/ca/nengo/model/nef/impl/NEFEnsembleImpl.java#L751
except making an STDPTermination instead of a BCMTermination.

I'll add in this function and make a small example model to show how to use
it this week.

- Trevor
