Learning Internal Representation of Visual Context in a Neural Coding Network

Abstract

Visual context plays a significant role in humans’ gaze movement for target searching. How to transform the visual context into the internal representation of a brain-like neural network is an interesting issue. Population cell coding is a neural representation mechanism which was widely discovered in primates’ visual neural system. This paper presents a biologically inspired neural network model which uses a population cell coding mechanism for visual context representation and target searching. Experimental results show that the population-cell-coding generally performs better than the single-cell-coding system.
