A model of the complex cell based on recent neurophysiological findings.
A neural network model is proposed for the understanding of the receptive field properties of the complex cell. The model is based on recent neurophysiological findings on the visual cortical network. The model is proved to be functionally identical with Hubel's and Wiesel's hierarchy model though the two models are structurally quite different.
