Abstract

We present a model for the ontogenesis of information routing architectures in the brain based on chemical markers guiding axon growth. The model produces all-to-all connectivity between given populations of input and output nodes using a minimum of cortical resources (links and intermediate nodes). The resulting structures are similar to architectures proposed in the literature, but with interesting qualitative differences making them biologically more plausible.
