Cortical Circuit Motif

My reading notes on A Functional Influence Based Circuit Motif That Constrains The Set of Plausible Algorithms of Cortical Function link

Preread Questions

• What is “Functional” about the circuit motif? Is this functional in the programming language sense? Or is it “active” in fMRI, or something?

• What previously hypothesized cortical algorithms does this new constraint eliminate from plausibility?
