Primes¶
- Lateral Inhibition
- Lateral inhibition is the structural pattern in which an activated element suppresses the activity of its neighbors, so that local differences are amplified and a single winner or a sharp boundary emerges from a field of competitors.
This sourceSeminal quantification of lateral inhibition: receptor units in the horseshoe-crab eye mutually and reciprocally suppress one another sideways, with strength falling off with distance, amplifying local differences into edges; grounds the prime's definition, structural signature, cross-substrate mutual-suppression core, manufactured-contrast claim, decentralized edge detection, and overshoot-prediction claims.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
