Benefits of pathway splitting in sensory coding.
In many sensory systems, the neural signal splits into multiple parallel pathways. For example, in the mammalian retina, ~20 types of retinal ganglion cells transmit information about the visual scene to the brain. The purpose of this profuse and early pathway splitting remains unknown. We examine a common instance of splitting into ON and OFF neurons excited by increments and decrements of lig...
متن کاملCoding of Sensory Information
SENSATION AND PERCEPTION provided the starting points for modern research into our mental processes. In the early nineteenth century the French philosopher Auguste Comte argued that the study of behavior should become a branch of the biological sciences and that the laws governing the mind should be derived from objective observation. Comte's new philosophy, which he called positivism, was infl...

Predictive Coding in Sensory Cortex
In recent years, predictive coding has become an increasingly influential model of how the brain processes sensory information. Predictive coding theories state that the brain is constantly trying to predict the inputs it receives, and each region in the cortical sensory hierarchy represents both these predictions and the mismatch between predictions and input (prediction error). In this chapte...
