Retina – Layered Neural Network
Marc R. E., Jones B. W., Watt C. B., and Strettoi E. (2003) Neural remodeling in retinal degeneration. Progress in Retinal and Eye Research 22: 607–655
Retina – Receptor Death Rods & cones die Sensory & neural (soma’s) layers collapse
Retina – Remodeling Surviving cells send out new processes Cells migrate to other areas
Proposed Model Create a layered network to mimic the functioning neural retina Use ant foraging model to simulate neurites searching for new input Retest remodeled network and compare the output
Proposed Model – Neural Network
Create a layered network to mimic the functioning neural retina Bipolar
and ganglion cell layers operate as feed forward network Horizontal and amacrine cell layers operate as localized attractor network Network will be trained with different objects and/or patterns
Proposed Model – Neural Network Bipolar Cells
Ganglion Cells
Simplest model Feed forward network: Bipolar Cells = Input Layer Ganglion Cells = Output Layer Ganglion cell input comes from multiple bipolars
Proposed Model – Neural Network Bipolar Cells
Added complexity Cells within each layer are interconnected to each other Repeat for each cell

Ganglion Cells
Proposed Model – Neural Network Bipolar Cells Horizontal Cells
More complexity Introduce horizontal and amacrine cells for interconnection within layers Ultimate goal is to simulate receptive fields of the ganglion cells
Amacrine Cells Ganglion Cells
Proposed Model – Neural Network Bipolar Input
Ganglion Cell Behavior
Cell A
Cell B
On Cell (A) would produce more spikes Off Cell (B) would produce fewer spikes
On Cell (A) would produce fewer spikes Off Cell (B) would produce more spikes
On center off surround cell (A) would produce more spikes Off center on surround cell (B) would produce fewer spikes
Add only enough complexity to the neural network layout necessary to create these kinds of receptive fields
Proposed Model – Ant Colonies
Use ant foraging model to simulate neurites searching for new input Each
neuron becomes a nest Ant foragers look for food sources (other neurons of the appropriate type) If a nest can’t bring in food at a minimum rate it will die Ultimately new neuron connections established as the strength of ant trails
Proposed Model – Ant Colonies Remote Bipolar Cell
Ganglion Cell (Nest)
•Cells and their established connections decay over time •New strength is added to connections based on strength of ant trail •Food at each source (other neurons) does not reduce with consumption by ants but by the decay of the cell
Two Neighboring Ganglion Cells
•Cells can remain alive by establishing an equilibrium with each other
Proposed Model – Lost “Potential” Vision
Retest remodeled network and compare the output Use
the same test inputs and observe the outputs Quantify the variation in the outputs Use those numbers to determine time course of the model Adjust parameters to more accurately match the real thing
Implementation Randomly position neurons for each layer aiming for specific spatial density Establish connections based on rules from the natural system and training Run ant colony simulation with each neuron acting independently Compare network output after remodeling Tweak parameters
Implementation
Language: Visual Basic Existing
modules to make things easier – unknown Possibly utilize NetLogo or some other utility for one model and/or the other
