Reduction of Information Redundancy in the Ascending Auditory Pathway
Information processing by a sensory system is reflected in the changes in stimulus representation along its successive processing stages. We measured information content and stimulus-induced redundancy in the neural responses to a set of natural sounds in three successive stations of the auditory pathway-inferior colliculus (IC), auditory thalamus (MGB), and primary auditory cortex (A1). Inform...
متن کاملGroup Redundancy Measures Reveal Redundancy Reduction in the Auditory Pathway
The way groups of auditory neurons interact to code acoustic information is investigated using an information theoretic approach. Identifying the case of stimulus-conditioned independent neurons, we develop redundancy measures that allow enhanced information estimation for groups of neurons. These measures are then applied to study the collaborative coding efficiency in two processing stations ...
متن کاملEmergence of Spatial Stream Segregation in the Ascending Auditory Pathway.
UNLABELLED Stream segregation enables a listener to disentangle multiple competing sequences of sounds. A recent study from our laboratory demonstrated that cortical neurons in anesthetized cats exhibit spatial stream segregation (SSS) by synchronizing preferentially to one of two sequences of noise bursts that alternate between two source locations. Here, we examine the emergence of SSS along ...
متن کاملTransformation of spatial sensitivity along the ascending auditory pathway.
Locations of sounds are computed in the central auditory pathway based primarily on differences in sound level and timing at the two ears. In rats, the results of that computation appear in the primary auditory cortex (A1) as exclusively contralateral hemifield spatial sensitivity, with strong responses to sounds contralateral to the recording site, sharp cutoffs across the midline, and weak, s...
