Abstract
Many modeling studies have been performed to investigate and find a specific learning mechanism suitable or responsible for the development of simple cell receptive field structure (SCRFS). In this work, it is shown that the mechanism of spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP) when combine with heterosynaptic interaction is suitable and sufficient for development of simple cell receptive field structure. Furthermore, with this study it is confirm that in the formation of simple cell receptive field structure the required temporal and spatial relationship is provided by STDP and heterosynaptic interaction respectively.
