Object representation using temporal sequence of neural activities. (a) The order of feature intensities of an object (e.g., ) is transformed into a temporal sequence of neural activities in control of respective features (e.g., ). The emergent temporal sequence of neural activities represents a hierarchical relationship of object features in coarse-to-fine manner on the temporal axis. (b) A typical simulated result of spike activities of output neurons of the four-glomerular module model. Spikes of each output neuron are indicated in different colors.
