Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: The existence of modularity in the organization of nervous systems (e.g. cortical columns and olfactory glomeruli) is ll known.  show that localized activity patterns in a layer of cells, collective excitations, can induce the formation of modular structures in the anatomical connections via a Hebbian learning mechanism. The networks are spatially homogeneous before learning, but the spontaneous emergence of localized collective excitations and subsequently modularity in the connection patterns breaks translational symmetry. This spontaneous symmetry breaking phenomenon is similar to those which drive pattern formation in reaction-diffusion systems.  have identified requirements on the patterns of lateral connections and on the gains of internal units which are essential for the development of modularity. These essential requirements will most likely remain operative when more complicated (and biologically realistic) models are considered.
