Before revision:  In this paper we present a neural network model based on the work of Lombardi, Herrmann, de Arcangelis et al. that captures the relevant dynamics of neural avalanches, and we show how tuning the fraction of inhibitory neurons in this model  removes exponential cut-offs present in the distributions of avalanche strength and duration, and transitions the power spectral density of the network into an epileptic regime.
