A recurrent circuit implements normalization, simulating the dynamics of V1 activity [Psychological and Cognitive Sciences]

The normalization model has been applied to explain neural activity in diverse neural systems including primary visual cortex (V1). The model’s defining characteristic is that the response of each neuron is divided by a factor that includes a weighted sum of activity of a pool of neurons. Despite the success...
