get_inner_sec_dist_dict¶

biophysics_fitting.utils.get_inner_sec_dist_dict(cell, beyond_dist=1000, beyond_struct=['ApicalDendrite'], n_children_required=1)¶

Get sections that connect to specific structures beyond a minimum distance.

Fetches all sections that are connected to compartments with labels in beyond_struct, and that have a minimum soma distance of beyond_dist. This is useful to get sections of the apical trunk of an L5PT, filtering out oblique dendrites.

Parameters:¶

cell : Cell¶

The cell object.

beyond_dist : float¶

The minimum distance from the soma (um).

beyond_struct : list¶

The labels of the structures to check.

n_children_required : int¶

The minimum number of children required to have a connection.

Returns:¶

A dictionary with the soma distance as key and the section as value.

Return type:¶

dict
