The olfactory system is a remarkable system capable of discriminating very similar odorant mixtures. This is in part achieved via spatio-temporal activity patterns generated in mitral cells, the principal cells of the olfactory bulb, during odor presentation. In this work, we present a spiking neural network model of the olfactory bulb and evaluate its performance as a pattern recognition system with datasets taken from both artificial and real pattern databases. Our results show that the dynamic activity patterns produced in the mitral cells of the olfactory bulb model by pattern attributes presented to it have a pattern separation capability. This capability can be explored in the construction of high-performance pattern recognition systems. © 2011 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
