On the temporal resolution of neural activity
نویسندگان
چکیده
An important issue regarding brain function is the existence and role of fine temporal structure in neural activity. Multi-neuronal recording techniques are now available to study this issue. We present a simple statistical method devised to detect fine temporal structure in simultaneously recorded spike processes. We apply this method to data recorded from monkey Supplementary Motor Area, and show a preliminary result which suggests that the nervous system may indeed use a temporal resolution of about 6 ms (or

An Improvement in Temporal Resolution of Seismic Data Using Logarithmic Time-frequency Transform Method
The improvement in the temporal resolution of seismic data is a critical issue in hydrocarbon exploration. It is important for obtaining more detailed structural and stratigraphic information. Many methods have been introduced to improve the vertical resolution of reflection seismic data. Each method has advantages and disadvantages which are due to the assumptions and theories governing their ...
متن کاملEffects of ageing on speed and temporal resolution of speech stimuli in older adults
Background: According to previous studies, most of the speech recognition disorders in older adults are the results of deficits in audibility and auditory temporal resolution. In this paper, the effect of ageing on timecompressed speech and auditory temporal resolution by word recognition in continuous and interrupted noise was studied. Methods: A time-compressed speech test (TCST) w...
متن کاملSpike timing dependent plasticity: mechanisms, significance, and controversies
Long-term modification of synaptic strength is one of the basic mechanisms of memory formation and activity-dependent refinement of neural circuits. This idea was purposed by Hebb to provide a basis for the formation of a cell assembly. Repetitive correlated activity of pre-synaptic and post-synaptic neurons can induce long-lasting synaptic strength modification, the direction and extent of whi...
