Abstract

A model of the auditory system was developed which implements spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP) [1] in a biologically realistic network of spiking excitatory Izhikevich neurons [2]. The model self-organizes in response to periodic sound and exhibits “harmonic dominance stripes” (Figure 1A) in the STDP connectivity matrix between the two layers of the network. These “harmonic dominance stripes” are akin to the activity
