Spontaneous formation of regions with different properties in neural nets.
This paper is intended to demonstrate the presence, in a nervous network, of "separate spatial areas", each with its own functional properties, when a "regular external stimulus" occurs. In this preliminary study we deal only with a linear situation, treating a network as a one-dimensional line described by co-ordinate x. We use a continuous approximation with a neuron of the network in each x position.
