Abstract

The binding problem is a problem on the integration of perceptual properties in our brains. For describing this problem in the artificial neural network, it is necessary to introduce the temporal coding of information. In this paper, we propose a neural network model that can represent the bindings of external stimuli, based on the network that is capable of figure-ground segmentation proposed by Sompolinsky and Tsodyks. This model adopts the coupled oscillators that can represent the temporal coding and the synchronization among them.
