The Wilson-Cowan model for metapopulation, a neural mass network model, treats different subcortical regions of the brain as connected nodes, with connections representing various types of structural, functional, or effective neuronal connectivity between these regions. Each region comprises interacting populations of excitatory and inhibitory cells, consistent with the standard Wilson-Cowan model. In this article, we show how to incorporate stable attractors into such a metapopulation model's dynamics. By doing so, we transform the neural mass network model into a biologically inspired learning algorithm capable of solving different classification tasks. We test it on MNIST and Fashion MNIST in combination with convolutional neural networks, as well as on CIFAR-10 and TF-FLOWERS, and in combination with a transformer architecture (BERT) on IMDB, consistently achieving high classification accuracy.
