Figure 3. Responses to randomly timed stimulus pulses.

Responses to randomly timed stimulus pulses. The FPA network (left) and the LCA network (right) were presented with the same randomly timed stimulus. Both models were able to follow the odour pulses, and at each onset of stimulus, the initial transients governed by networks dynamics appear to start anew. The averaged PN activity shows that both models follow the odour pulses closely and this averaged activity accurately relays the timing information of the stimulus.
