Based on published research results on the structure of the human retina and the initial assumption of tight hexagonal packing of cones, the mean cone-distance function is derived. Disorder in the cone lattice is explained as the superposition of increasing topological distortion in the hexagonal lattice (providing a possible explanation for observed systematic lattice distortions) and local jitter of neighbor-to-neighbor distances, for which a simple statistical model is provided. These individual results are incorporated into a proposed algorithm for simulating the cone receptors' topography in 3D-space. Finally, possible software and hardware applications of the algorithmically defined retina model are briefly touched.
基于已发表的关于人类视网膜结构的研究结果以及视锥细胞紧密六边形排列的初始假设，推导出了平均视锥细胞间距函数。视锥细胞晶格中的无序被解释为六边形晶格中不断增加的拓扑畸变（为观察到的系统性晶格畸变提供了一种可能的解释）和相邻距离的局部抖动的叠加，并为此提供了一个简单的统计模型。这些单独的结果被纳入到一个用于在三维空间中模拟视锥细胞感受器地形的拟议算法中。最后，简要提及了算法定义的视网膜模型可能的软件和硬件应用。
