Figure 7. Estimation accuracy of the tWTA readout in a hypercolumn model.

Figure 7

The accuracy of the tWTA readout, in terms of one over the squared estimation error of estimating Inline graphic, is plotted as a function of the population size, in an IHPP hypercolumn population model, equation(30). The latency tuning was modeled by Inline graphic (where Inline graphic is measured in radian) with Inline graphic from top to bottom. Accuracy was measured by averaging the squared estimation error over 10,000 trials of simulating the neuronal stochastic response (squares). The solid lines show the analytical fit using equation (33).
