Abstract

A two-layer structure of neural tissue modeled as a continuum Consisting of purely excitatory and inhibitory cells supports a complex system of growing modes. The wavelengths of the favored, larger than synaptic connection ranges, can by a vile delay in interlayer singnals. Since the contiranm regions under consideration are themselves neural networks, we argue this organized, large-scale activity inherent the neural sufficient to support cognitive phenomena.
