This is a surprisingly naive view of the complex brain. You appear to have little idea about how neurons compete with many others to compute. No neuron in the brain computes alone! </div>

Read Developmental Networks (DN-1 through DN-3) to learn a developmental model about the brain. My book, Natural and Artificial Intelligence gives a systematic introduction.

This is my last answer because I think you are just pretending to be very clueless. The pattern evokes neuronal activation, and it also evokes activity in the one single neuron for the person whose face it is. This is how it is constructed. Then you can use
this one neuron to calculate. You don't need the others.</div>
