dc.description.abstract | Long-range horizontal connections (LRCs) are conspicuous anatomical structures in the primary visual cortex (V1) of mammals, yet their detailed functions in relation to visual processing are not fully understood. Here, we show that LRCs are key components to organize a "small-world network" optimized for each size of the visual cortex, enabling the cost-efficient integration of visual information. Using computational simulations of a biologically inspired model neural network, we found that sparse LRCs added to networks, combined with dense local connections, compose a small-world network and significantly enhance image classification performance. We confirmed that the performance of the network appeared to be strongly correlated with the small-world coefficient of the model network under various conditions. Our theoretical model demonstrates that the amount of LRCs to build a small-world network depends on each size of cortex and that LRCs are beneficial only when the size of the network exceeds a certain threshold. Our model simulation of various sizes of cortices validates this prediction and provides an explanation of the species-specific existence of LRCs in animal data. Our results provide insight into a biological strategy of the brain to balance functional performance and resource cost. Author summaryThe brain performs visual object recognition using much shallower hierarchical stages than artificial deep neural networks employ. However, the mechanism underlying this cost-efficient function is elusive. Here, we show that cortical long-range connections (LRC) may enable this parsimonious organization of circuits for balancing cost and performance. Using model network simulations based on data in tree shrews, we found that sparse LRCs, when added to local connections, organize a small-world network that dramatically enhances object recognition of shallow feedforward networks. We found that optimization of the ratio between LRCs and local connections maximizes the small-world coefficient and task performance of the network, by minimizing the total length of wiring needed for integration of the global information. We also found that the effect of LRCs varies by network size, which explains the existence of species-specific LRCs in mammalian visual cortex of various sizes. Our results demonstrate a biological strategy to achieve cost-efficient brain circuits. | - |
