A spiking neural model of cricket phonotaxis
A dynamic model of spiking neurons is used to simulate hypothesised neural control circuits for phonotaxis in crickets. The initial aim is to determine the neurophysiological plausibility of a model previously tested in algorithmic form on a robot. It turned out to be possible to reproduce aspects of the localization and recognition behaviour of crickets using a six-neuron network. The firing r...
متن کاملNew neural circuits for robot phonotaxis.
W. Grey Walter built robotic systems to improve understanding of biological systems. In that tradition, this paper reports ongoing work on a robot model of cricket sound localization. The main advances are the inclusion of a much larger range of neuroethological detail, and the investigation of multimodal influences on the behaviour. The former allows exploration of the functionality of identif...
متن کاملSpectral selectivity during phonotaxis: a comparative study in Neoconocephalus (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae).
The calls of male Neoconocephalus have most energy concentrated in a relatively narrow low-frequency band. In N. robustus this low-frequency band is centered around 7 kHz, whereas calls of N. nebrascensis and N. bivocatus have center frequencies close to 10 kHz. The importance of the position of the low-frequency band for female phonotaxis in these three species was determined using a walking c...
متن کاملSelective Phonotaxis by Cotton-top Tamarins
When nonhuman animals vocalize, signal receivers are provided with a range of potential acoustic information concerning the signaler’s body size, sex, individual identity, kinship and group membership. Here we explore whether cotton-top tamarins (Saguinus oedipus) extract such information from their species-typical combination long call using a modi cation of the phonotaxis assay originally de...
متن کاملPostsynaptic inhibition mediates high-frequency selectivity in the cricket Teleogryllus oceanicus: implications for flight phonotaxis behavior.
The frequency selectivity of the identified auditory interneuron, Int-1, in the cricket Teleogryllus oceanicus was examined using intracellular recording and staining techniques. Previous behavioral assays showed that crickets discriminate the low frequencies of the species calling song (4-5 kHz) from the high frequencies contained in the vocalizations of insectivorous bats (Nolen and Hoy, 1986...
