In feedforward networks with random connectivity, connection motifs underlying the detection of short clusters and activity sequences are likely to converge on a subset of postsynaptic neurons purely by chance.

The dynamical solutions exhibited by task-optimized recurrent neural networks, and their similarity to prefrontal cortex dynamics, depends strongly on the strength of neural noise and metabolic cost imposed during training.
