This genome is designed to function as a complex cell that integrates simple curvature into more complex curvature
A complex cell, biologically, aggregates input from a number of simple cells. After the curve-detection circuit extracts individual curve features, those outputs can be passed into a higher-level complex-curve circuit. Different complex-cell cortical areas are selective for particular combinations of curve segments. For example, a left-bottom curve together with a right-bottom curve can represent the lower half of a circle. In each complex-cell area, the threshold is tuned to the summed PSPs from the appropriate input areas. Only the combination pushes it to fire, indicating complex curvature. Other complex-cell areas are organized similarly for different curve combinations.
