Structure of Receptive Fields in a Computational Model of Area 3b of Primary Sensory Cortex

In a previous work, we introduced a computational model of area 3b which is built upon the neural field theory and receives input from a simplified model of the index distal finger pad populated by a random set of touch receptors(Merkell cells). This model has been shown to be able to self-organize...
