In the present study we have used a set of methods and metrics to build a graph of relative neural connections in a hippocampus of a rodent. A set of graphs was built on top of time-sequenced data and analyzed in terms of dynamics of a connection genesis. The analysis has shown that during the process of a rodent exploring a novel environment, the relations between neurons constantly change which indicates that globally memory is constantly updated even for known areas of space. Even if some neurons gain cognitive specialization, the global network though remains relatively stable. Additionally we suggest a set of methods for building a graph of cognitive neural network.
