description:   The corticothalamic feedback and the thalamic reticular nucleus have gained   much attention lately because of their integrative and modulatory functions.   A previous study by the author suggested that   this circuitry can process analogies (i.e., the {\em analogy hypothesis}).   In this paper, the proposed model was implemented as a network of leaky   integrate-and-fire neurons to test the {\em analogy hypothesis}.   The previous proposal required specific delay and   temporal dynamics, and the implemented network tuned   accordingly functioned as predicted. Furthermore, these specific   conditions turn out to be consistent with experimental data, suggesting   that a further investigation of the thalamocortical circuit within the {\em   analogical framework} may be worthwhile.
