โฆ Synopsis
This paper presents a detailed model of the turtle visual cortex containing 750 cells from different cortical layers. Our model captures the basic geometry and temporal structure of the visual cortex and has been shown to generate propagating waves of activity that contain information about a moving stimulus. The simulation data have been analyzed using principal component analysis, @ 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

A neural network model is proposed to explain the development of direction selectivity of cortical cells. The model is constructed under the following three hypotheses that are very plausible from recent neurophysiological findings. (1) Direction selectivity is developed by modifiable inhibitory syn
