Do Sensory Cortices Process More than One Sensory Modality during Perceptual Judgments?
Recent studies have reported that sensory cortices process more than one sensory modality, challenging the long-lasting concept that they process only one. However, both the identity of these multimodal responses and whether they contribute to perceptual judgments is unclear. We recorded from single neurons in somatosensory cortices and primary auditory cortex while trained monkeys discriminate...
متن کاملA Neural Parametric Code for Storing Information of More than One Sensory Modality in Working Memory
Working memory, a well-studied cognitive function, refers to the capacity to remember things for a short time. Which neurons in the brain implement this function and how exactly they do it are unresolved questions. Here we show that, in a cortical area that participates in the analysis of perceptual experiences, the same neurons encode both tactile and acoustic information in working memory, an...
متن کاملSensory specific satiety: More than ‘just’ habituation?
Sensory specific satiety (SSS) describes the decline in pleasantness associated with a food as it is eaten relative to a food that has not been eaten (the 'eaten' and 'uneaten' foods, respectively). The prevailing view is that SSS is governed by habituation. Nevertheless, the extent to which SSS results solely from this 'low-level' process remains unclear. Three experiments were conducted to ex...
متن کاملSensory Modality Segregation
Why are sensory modalities segregated the way they are? In this paper we show that sensory modalities are well designed for self-supervised crossmodal learning. Using an unsupervised speech categorization task with visual (moving lips) and auditory (sound signal) inputs, we show that very informative auditory dimensions actually harm performance when moved to the visual side of the network. It ...
متن کاملMulti-modality Sensory Feedback
Prostheses for clinical use restore the lost motor function of the hand, but not the sensory function. Implementing sensory feedback (SF) in prostheses can increase the grasping capability, introduce a feeling of embodiment of the prosthesis, and reduce phantom limb pain [1], [2]. The current noninvasive SF systems normally only incorporate one-modality (electrotactile, mechanotactile, or vibro...
