Simulating Cortical Feedback Modulation as Changes in Excitation and Inhibition in a Cortical Circuit Model
Cortical feedback pathways are hypothesized to distribute context-dependent signals during flexible behavior. Recent experimental work has attempted to understand the mechanisms by which cortical feedback inputs modulate their target regions. Within the mouse whisker sensorimotor system, cortical feedback stimulation modulates spontaneous activity and sensory responsiveness, leading to enhanced...
متن کاملPosition Control of a Pulse Width Modulated Pneumatic Systems: an Experimental Comparison
In this study, a new adaptive controller is proposed for position control of pneumatic systems. Difficulties associated with the mathematical model of the system in addition to the instability caused by Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) in the learning-based controllers using gradient descent, motivate the development of a new approach for PWM pneumatics. In this study, two modified Feedback Error L...
متن کاملOscillatory entrainment of the motor cortical network during motor imagery is modulated by the feedback modality
Neurofeedback of self-regulated brain activity in circumscribed cortical regions is used as a novel strategy to facilitate functional restoration following stroke. Basic knowledge about its impact on motor system oscillations and functional connectivity is however scarce. Specifically, a direct comparison between different feedback modalities and their neural signatures is missing. We assessed ...
متن کاملTop-Down Inputs Enhance Orientation Selectivity in Neurons of the Primary Visual Cortex during Perceptual Learning
Perceptual learning has been used to probe the mechanisms of cortical plasticity in the adult brain. Feedback projections are ubiquitous in the cortex, but little is known about their role in cortical plasticity. Here we explore the hypothesis that learning visual orientation discrimination involves learning-dependent plasticity of top-down feedback inputs from higher cortical areas, serving a ...
متن کاملSelf-Oscillating Class-D Audio Amplifier With A Phase-Shifting Filter in Feedback Loop
A self-oscillating class-D audio amplifier adopting the phase-shifting looap filter in the feedback filter is proposed. To validate the design, a mathematical model is proposed. It is alleged in a very simple form which describes the switching frequency variation as the function of the modulation depth to be applied to any general structure: phase shifting, time delay of the loop, and the hyste...
