Abstract
A simulated neural circuit includes a plurality of simulated neurons. The simulated neurons have input branches that are configured to connect to a plurality of inputs and activate in response to activity in the inputs to which they are connected. In addition, the simulated neurons are configured to activate in response to activity in their input branches. Initial connections are formed between various input branches and various inputs and a set of the inputs are activated. Thereafter, the stability of connections between input branches and inputs to which they are connected is moderated based on the activated set of inputs and a pattern of activity generated in the input branches and simulated neurons in response to the activated set of inputs.
