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.
