    In turn, some complex cells in layer 2/3 receive monosynaptic excitatory input from simple cells in layer 4 (Alonso and Martinez, 1998). However, hierarchical convergence of simple cells onto complex cells is likely only one circuit evident in the cortex: inactivation of layer A in the LGN inactivates layer 4 simple cells but not all layer 2/3 complex cells (Malpeli, 1983) and some complex cells receive direct geniculate input (Hoffmann and Stone, 1971; Stone and Dreher, 1973; Toyama et al., 1973; Singer et al., 1975; Bullier and Henry, 1979; Heggelund, 1981; Ferster and Lindstrom, 1983; Tanaka, 1983, 1985; Martin and Whitteridge, 1984). Nevertheless, hierarchical convergence of simple cells onto complex cells is a common feature of a number of computational models able to reproduce many phenomena observed in real cortical neurons (Movshon et al., 1978b; Adelson and Bergen, 1985; Ohzawa et al., 1990; Heeger, 1992).
