A computational V1 model derived from multi-resolution image-reconstruction
Shunji Satoh (Tohoku Fukushi Univ.)
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Neurophysiological experiments have revealed that
post-synaptic effect conveyed by long-range horizontal connections (LHC) in V1
can be excitatory or inhibitory,
and the effect highly depends on the activity of pre-synaptic neurons
(non-linearity of horizontal connections).
Almost all of computational studies about LHC have been based on
contour integration.
However, contour integration cannot explain the non-linearity of LHC.

In this study,
the author proposes image-reconstruction as the computational role of
LHC in V1 instead of contour integration.
The spatial distribution of LHC and the non-linear property are
theoretically derived from the dynamics for image-reconstruction.
It is shown that the theoretically obtained distribution of LHC and the non-linear
property are qualitatively consistent with neurophysiological findings.
Numerical simulations show the effectiveness of the proposed model
from engineering points of view.
