Processing of tactile information by the hippocampus [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007 The ability to detect unusual events occurring in the environment is essential for survival. Several studies have pointed to the hippocampus as a key brain structure in novelty detection, a claim substantiated by its wide access to sensory information through the entorhinal cortex and also distinct aspects of its intrinsic circuitry.

Learning cross-modal visual-tactile representation using ensembled generative adversarial networks
Cognitive Computation and Systems, 2019 In this study, the authors study a deep learning model that can convert vision into tactile information, so that different texture images can be fed back to the tactile signal close to the real tactile sensation after training and learning.
