Learning of sparse auditory receptive fields
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is largely unknown how the properties of the auditory system relate to the properties of natural sounds. Here, we analyze representations of simulated neurons that have optimally sparse activity in response to spectrotemporal speech data. These representations share important properties with auditory neurons as determined in electrophysiological experiments.

Nonlinear Hebbian Learning as a Unifying Principle in Receptive Field Formation
The development of sensory receptive fields has been modeled in the past by a variety of models including normative models such as sparse coding or independent component analysis and bottom-up models such as spike-timing dependent plasticity or the Bienenstock-Cooper-Munro model of synaptic plasticity. Here we show that the above variety of approaches can all be unified into a single common pri...

متن کاملSparse Coding Can Predict Primary Visual Cortex Receptive Field Changes Induced by Abnormal Visual Input
Receptive fields acquired through unsupervised learning of sparse representations of natural scenes have similar properties to primary visual cortex (V1) simple cell receptive fields. However, what drives in vivo development of receptive fields remains controversial. The strongest evidence for the importance of sensory experience in visual development comes from receptive field changes in anima...
متن کاملSparse Codes for Speech Predict Spectrotemporal Receptive Fields in the Inferior Colliculus
We have developed a sparse mathematical representation of speech that minimizes the number of active model neurons needed to represent typical speech sounds. The model learns several well-known acoustic features of speech such as harmonic stacks, formants, onsets and terminations, but we also find more exotic structures in the spectrogram representation of sound such as localized checkerboard p...
متن کاملSparse Coding of Birdsong and Receptive Field Structure in Songbirds. [Sparse Coding of Birdsong]
Auditory neurons can be characterized by a spectro-temporal receptive field, the kernel of a linear filter model describing the neuronal response to a stimulus. With a view to better understanding the tuning properties of these cells, the receptive fields of neurons in the zebra finch auditory fore-brain are compared to a set of artificial kernels generated under the assumption of sparseness; t...
