Figure 6. Flowchart depicting the algorithm for the artificial thalamic model. The process commences with the initialization of network parameters
(A), followed by the initialization of weight and sigmoidal shift variables (B). The functionality of the entire network relies on updating the oscillation of
reticular neurons (C and D) concurrently with the firing of REs (E and F). It is at this stage that the principal components are extracted (G). Subsequently,
the weights and shift undergo updates (H), and the number of total iterations is examined (I). If there are additional iterations pending in the oscillation
steps, a new loop is executed (J) until it matches the specified number of steps.
