Spatial Cognition: Grid Cells Support Imagined Navigation
Grid cells in the entorhinal cortex represent an animal's current location during navigation. A new study indicates that grid cells in humans also represent information about imagined movement and spatial orienting, suggesting that the entorhinal network has a flexible role in spatial representation.
متن کاملThree Spaces of Spatial Cognition
All our lives, we interact with the space around us, whether we are finding our way to a remote cabana in an exotic tropical isle or reaching for a ripe mango on the tree beside the cabana or finding a comfortable position in the hammock to snack after the journey. Each of these natural situations is experienced differently, and as a consequence, each is conceptualized differently. Our knowledg...
متن کاملGrid Cells Encode Local Positional Information
The brain has an extraordinary ability to create an internal spatial map of the external world [1]. This map-like representation of environmental surroundings is encoded through specific types of neurons, located within the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex, which exhibit spatially tuned firing patterns [2, 3]. In addition to encoding space, these neurons are believed to be related to contextua...
متن کاملThree Complementary Performance Prediction Methods for Grid Applications
Accurate predictions of application execution time have many uses in Grid computing. The predictions can include both estimations of the execution time of an application for a range of problem sizes, and predictions of how an application performs on different Grid resources. The actual problem formulation depends on the intended use of the time prediction (resource selection, Grid job coordinat...
متن کاملSpatial Cognition: Grid Cell Firing Depends on Self-Motion Cues
A recent study has found that the periodic spatial activity of grid cells is completely degraded when animals are moved passively around an enclosure, strengthening the view that grid-firing is generated on the basis of self-motion information.
