First provide a summary of the paper, and then address the following criteria: Quality, clarity, originality and significance. Summary: The authors present a continuous attractor neural model which implements (anticipative) tracking. The authors show that spike frequency adaptation (SFA) can induce traveling waves under certain conditions. Interestingly, they show that the effects induced by SFA are similar to those that can be obtained by introducing asymmetric coupling between neurons as in [14], with the advantage that this method does not depend on hard-wired connections. The bulk of the paper is a theoretical analysis of a simplified model and simulations with the complete model for verification.
