Lateral Information Processing by Spiking Neurons: A Theoretical Model of the Neural Correlate of Consciousness

Figure 8

Figure/ground separation using our model. A sheet of neurons (nodes) receives input from a virtual retina (image in background). Gap junctions (connections between nodes) open if the temporal output of a neuron is above the spatial average.
