Encoding of Illusory Continuity in Primary Auditory Cortex
When interfering objects occlude a scene, the visual system restores the occluded information. Similarly, when a sound of interest (a "foreground" sound) is interrupted (occluded) by loud noise, the auditory system restores the occluded information. This process, called auditory induction, can be exploited to create a continuity illusion. When a segment of a foreground sound is deleted and loud...
متن کاملHearing illusory sounds in noise: sensory-perceptual transformations in primary auditory cortex.
A sound that is interrupted by silence is perceived as discontinuous. However, when the silence is replaced by noise, the target sound may be heard as uninterrupted. Understanding the neural basis of this continuity illusion may elucidate the ability to track sounds of interest in noisy auditory scenes, but yet little is known. In the present functional magnetic resonance imaging study in human...
متن کاملEncoding frequency contrast in primate auditory cortex.
Changes in amplitude and frequency jointly determine much of the communicative significance of complex acoustic signals, including human speech. We have previously described responses of neurons in the core auditory cortex of awake rhesus macaques to sinusoidal amplitude modulation (SAM) signals. Here we report a complementary study of sinusoidal frequency modulation (SFM) in the same neurons. ...
متن کاملDifferences between primary auditory cortex and auditory belt related to encoding and choice for AM sounds.
We recorded from middle-lateral (ML) and primary (A1) auditory cortex while macaques discriminated amplitude-modulated (AM) noise from unmodulated noise. Compared with A1, ML had a higher proportion of neurons that encoded increasing AM depth by decreasing their firing rates ("decreasing" neurons), particularly with responses that were not synchronized to the modulation. Choice probability (CP)...
متن کاملMillisecond encoding precision of auditory cortex neurons.
Neurons in auditory cortex are central to our perception of sounds. However, the underlying neural codes, and the relevance of millisecond-precise spike timing in particular, remain debated. Here, we addressed this issue in the auditory cortex of alert nonhuman primates by quantifying the amount of information carried by precise spike timing about complex sounds presented for extended periods o...
