Contrast Gain Control in Auditory Cortex
The auditory system must represent sounds with a wide range of statistical properties. One important property is the spectrotemporal contrast in the acoustic environment: the variation in sound pressure in each frequency band, relative to the mean pressure. We show that neurons in ferret auditory cortex rescale their gain to partially compensate for the spectrotemporal contrast of recent stimul...
متن کاملContrast tuning in auditory cortex.
The acoustic features useful for converting auditory information into perceived objects are poorly understood. Although auditory cortex neurons have been described as being narrowly tuned and preferentially responsive to narrowband signals, naturally occurring sounds are generally wideband with unique spectral energy profiles. Through the use of parametric wideband acoustic stimuli, we found th...
متن کاملEncoding frequency contrast in primate auditory cortex.
Changes in amplitude and frequency jointly determine much of the communicative significance of complex acoustic signals, including human speech. We have previously described responses of neurons in the core auditory cortex of awake rhesus macaques to sinusoidal amplitude modulation (SAM) signals. Here we report a complementary study of sinusoidal frequency modulation (SFM) in the same neurons. ...
متن کاملDepth-dependent contrast gain-control
Contrast adaptation that was limited to a small region of the peripheral retina was induced as observers viewed a multiple depth-plane textured surface. The small region undergoing contrast adaptation was present only in one depth-plane to determine whether contrast gain-control is depth-dependent. After adaptation, observers performed a contrast-matching task in both the adapted and a non-adap...
متن کاملContrast gain control in natural scenes.
Behavioral and electrophysiological studies of visual processing routinely employ sine wave grating stimuli, an approach that has led to the development of models in which the first stage of cortical visual processing acts as a bank of narrowband local filters whose responses vary with the contrast of preferred structure falling within their receptive fields. The relevance of this approach to n...
