Sleep, Learning, and Birdsong [PDF]

ILAR Journal, 2010
Neuroethological research combines approaches derived from animal behavior and neurobiology to examine the neuronal mechanisms of behavior, often in the context of laboratory experiments on species chosen for particular adaptations. Typically, these species are not traditional laboratory animals yet they contribute greatly to a broad, evolutionarily ...

The effect of isolation, fragmentation, and population bottlenecks on song structure of a Hawaiian honeycreeper

Ecology and Evolution, 2018
Little is known about how important social behaviors such as song vary within and among populations for any of the endemic Hawaiian honeycreepers. Habitat loss and non‐native diseases (e.g., avian malaria) have resulted in isolation and fragmentation of ...

Role of the site of synaptic competition and the balance of learning forces for Hebbian encoding of probabilistic Markov sequences

Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2015
The majority of distinct sensory and motor events occur as temporally ordered sequences with rich probabilistic structure. Sequences can be characterized by the probability of transitioning from the current state to upcoming states (forward probability),
