Abstract
We propose to use a random-graph model of cortex as a tobula-rasa stat e, to be contrasted with various types of regular connectivity pattern s. Key in our analysis is the notion of graph-theoretic dimensionality , closely linked to that of graph diameter. Our discussion focuses on patterns of synfire type, and on the synfire-superposition model propo sed in previous papers.
