Information Optimization in Coupled Audio-Visual Cortical Maps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Barn owls hunt in the dark by using cues from both sight and sound to locate their prey. This task is facilitated by topographic maps of the external space formed by neurons (e.g., in the optic tectum) that respond to visual or aural signals from a ...

Global Jitter Motion of the Retinal Image Dynamically Alters the Receptive Field Properties of Retinal Ganglion Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Fixational eye movements induce aperiodic motion of the retinal image. However, it is not yet fully understood how fixational eye movements affect retinal information processing.

The Observable Field for Antennas in Reception

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation, 2018
In this paper, the portion of the incident field that can be received by an antenna is investigated: the observable field. This field can be estimated relying only on the volume allocated to the antenna and thus independently of the specific antenna geometry.

Pattern-dependent response modulations in motion-sensitive visual interneurons--a model study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Even if a stimulus pattern moves at a constant velocity across the receptive field of motion-sensitive neurons, such as lobula plate tangential cells (LPTCs) of flies, the response amplitude modulates over time.

RF-Next: Efficient Receptive Field Search for Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Temporal/spatial receptive fields of models play an important role in sequential/spatial tasks. Large receptive fields facilitate long-term relations, while small receptive fields help to capture the local details. Existing methods construct models with hand-designed receptive fields in layers. Can we effectively search for receptive field combinations

The Embedded Neuron, the Enactive Field? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The concept of the receptive field, first articulated by Hartline, is central to visual neuroscience. The receptive field of a neuron encompasses the spatial and temporal properties of stimuli that activate the neuron, and, as Hubel and Wiesel conceived ...

Characterizing Auditory Receptive Fields [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2008
In this issue of Neuron, two papers by Atencio et al. and Nagel and Doupe adapt new computational methods to map the spectrotemporal response fields of neurons in the auditory cortex. The papers take different but complementary approaches to apply theoretical techniques to classical methods of receptive field mapping and, in doing so, provide exciting ...

Developmental sensory experience balances cortical excitation and inhibition. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Early in life, neural circuits are highly susceptible to outside influences. The organization of the primary auditory cortex (A1) in particular is governed by acoustic experience during the critical period, an epoch near the beginning of postnatal ...

Emergent spatial patterns of excitatory and inhibitory synaptic strengths drive somatotopic representational discontinuities and their plasticity in a computational model of primary sensory cortical area 3b

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2016
Mechanisms underlying the emergence and plasticity of representational discontinuities in the mammalian primary somatosensory cortical representation of the hand are investigated in a computational model. The model consists of an input lattice organized

Minimal Embedding Dimensions of Connected Neural Codes [PDF]

open access: yesAlgebraic Statistics 11, 1 (2020) 99-106, 2017
In the past few years, the study of receptive field codes has been of large interest to mathematicians. Here we give a complete characterization of receptive field codes realizable by connected receptive fields and we give the minimal embedding dimensions of these codes.
