Multiplexed and robust representations of sound features in auditory cortex.
We can recognize the melody of a familiar song when it is played on different musical instruments. Similarly, an animal must be able to recognize a warning call whether the caller has a high-pitched female or a lower-pitched male voice, and whether they are sitting in a tree to the left or right. This type of perceptual invariance to "nuisance" parameters comes easily to listeners, but it is un...
متن کاملEgocentric and allocentric representations in auditory cortex
A key function of the brain is to provide a stable representation of an object's location in the world. In hearing, sound azimuth and elevation are encoded by neurons throughout the auditory system, and auditory cortex is necessary for sound localization. However, the coordinate frame in which neurons represent sound space remains undefined: classical spatial receptive fields in head-fixed subj...
متن کاملSound frequency representation in cat auditory cortex.
Using the intrinsic signal optical recording technique, we reconstructed the two-dimensional pattern of stimulus-evoked neuronal activities in the auditory cortex of anesthetized and paralyzed cats. The average magnitude of intrinsic signal in response to a pure tone stimulus increased steadily as the sound pressure level increased. A detailed analysis demonstrated that the evoked signals at ea...
متن کاملcompactifications and representations of transformation semigroups
this thesis deals essentially (but not from all aspects) with the extension of the notion of semigroup compactification and the construction of a general theory of semitopological nonaffine (affine) transformation semigroup compactifications. it determines those compactification which are universal with respect to some algebric or topological properties. as an application of the theory, it is i...
15 صفحه اولInvestigating dynamic neural representations of learning/memory in auditory cortex by sound reconstruction
Songbirds rely on auditory processing of natural communication signals for the rare behavior of vocal learning—the ability to reproduce and recognize vocalizations through an adult model [1,4]. For this project, we obtained depth electrode recordings of local field potential from the caudal medial nidopallium, the songbird equivalent of auditory cortex. Anesthetized songbirds were given novel a...
