Model parameters.

Model parameters, their values, and the ranges these parameters were varied over. Values marked by * govern axon growth. Axon model parameters were varied over similar ranges to the other parameters but systematic exploration was not performed. Such changes did not affect the qualitative behavior of the model, but due to insufficient homeostatic balancing, changing of one parameter sometimes required similar changes to another to generate similar patterns of behavior. Parameters governing STDP behaviors were based on data from published studies and were not altered in the present study. Values for STDP parameters are provided in the text. Parameters for the retinal wave model were not systematically explored in this study. The values used to produce waves with specific spatiotemporal properties are provided in Table 3.
