Abstract :
The chromatic cell network in primate retina is modeled with the electronic circuit. Each compartment has trans-admittance, CR filters, differential amplifiers and static nonlinear elements or divisive elements. Feed forward and feedback pathways between layers, together with interconnections of the adjacent cells within the same layers, are based on the biologically documented references. The model presented here predicts the well documented temporal responses and center/surround receptive fields of the chromatic neuron network in the primate retinal fovea.
