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.
