Guidelines
Primary visual cortex is a complex recurrent dynamical system that operates quite differently from how moder neural network systems do. It however still remains unclear how does a biological V1 compare in its computational power to the state-of-the-art DNN systems for image analysis. In this project you will take our large-scale biologically dietailed spiking network model of cat primary visual cortex (V1) and prepend it to an existing state-of-the-art DNN system as its first stage of processing. You will then train both the original DNN and the new hybrid system on an image categorization benchmark and analyze the difference between the performance of the two systems.
