Computing with Biologically Inspired Neural Oscillators: Application to Colour Image Segmentation

Figure 12

Connections between each neural oscillator, its four neighbours (𝑥₁,𝑥₂,𝑥₃, and 𝑥₄) and the global inhibitor (𝑧). Every neural oscillator in a network is connected to the global inhibitor (these connections are not shown here for simplicity). Each neuron is assigned to a pixel of the image whose features form the external input of the neural oscillator. Only the unit 𝑥 of the oscillator is shown.
