Fig 11. Two-dimensional spatial network with patchy long-range connections.
(A) Spatial networks need to be defined in terms of dimension, layout, metric, boundary conditions, and the spatial or distance dependence of the connectivity, where applicable. In this example, neurons have both local and structured long-range connections [97]. Θ(x) = 0 if x < 0, 1 otherwise. (B) Sketch of patchy connectivity and parameters needed to define ppatch. (C) Graphical notation of network connectivity corresponding to Fig 8.
