Abstract
In a previous paper we have shown, that it is possible to model the oscillations observed in an orientation specific column in the visual cortex by coupling excitatory and inhibitory subpopulations of neurons which compose the column, and that these oscillations can be described by the phases of the corresponding limit cycle oscillators. By coupling different columns via long but finite range sparse interactions, we generate in the phase description stimulus dependent multiplicative couplings which explain experimentally observed synchronization effects.Mesh:
