Distribution of orientation selectivity in recurrent networks of spiking neurons with different random topologies.

Neurons in the primary visual cortex are more or less selective for the orientation of a light bar used for stimulation. A broad distribution of individual grades of orientation selectivity has in fact been reported in all species. A possible reason for emergence of broad distributions is the recurr...
