Hierarchical sparse coding in the sensory system of Caenorhabditis elegans.
Animals with compact sensory systems face an encoding problem where a small number of sensory neurons are required to encode information about its surrounding complex environment. Using Caenorhabditis elegans worms as a model, we ask how chemical stimuli are encoded by a small and highly connected sensory system. We first generated a comprehensive library of transgenic worms where each animal e...
متن کاملTraffic Scene Analysis using Hierarchical Sparse Topical Coding
Analyzing motion patterns in traffic videos can be exploited directly to generate high-level descriptions of the video contents. Such descriptions may further be employed in different traffic applications such as traffic phase detection and abnormal event detection. One of the most recent and successful unsupervised methods for complex traffic scene analysis is based on topic models. In this pa...
متن کاملThe sensory cilia of Caenorhabditis elegans.
The non-motile cilium, once believed to be a vestigial cellular structure, is now increasingly associated with the ability of a wide variety of cells and organisms to sense their chemical and physical environments. With its limited number of sensory cilia and diverse behavioral repertoire, C. elegans has emerged as a powerful experimental system for studying how cilia are formed, function, and ...
متن کاملHierarchical Sparse Coding
A number of researchers have theorized that the brain may be employing some form of hierarchical model of features in visual processing. Nodes at the bottom of the hierarchy would represent local, spacially-oriented, specific features, while levels further up the hierarchy would detect increasingly complex, spatially-diffuse, and invariant features, with nodes in the uppermost layers correspond...
متن کاملSparse coding of sensory inputs.
Several theoretical, computational, and experimental studies suggest that neurons encode sensory information using a small number of active neurons at any given point in time. This strategy, referred to as 'sparse coding', could possibly confer several advantages. First, it allows for increased storage capacity in associative memories; second, it makes the structure in natural signals explicit;...
