Abstract

Information in the nervous system has often been considered as being represented by simultaneous discharges of a large set of neurons. We propose a learning mechanism for neural information processing in a simulated cortex model. Also, a new paradigm for pattern recognition by oscillatory neural networks is proposed. The relaxation time of the oscillatory networks is used as a criterion for novelty detection.
