Juxtacrine signaling is inherently noisy.
Juxtacrine signaling is an important class of signaling systems that plays a crucial role in various developmental processes ranging from coordination of differentiation between neighboring cells to guiding axon growth during neurogenesis. Such signaling systems rely on the interaction between receptors on one cell and trans-membrane ligands on the membrane of a neighboring cell. Like other sig...
متن کاملHow Actions Alter Sensory Processing
Our vestibular organs are simultaneously activated by our own actions as well as by stimulation from the external world. The ability to distinguish sensory inputs that are a consequence of our own actions (vestibular reafference) from those that result from changes in the external world (vestibular exafference) is essential for perceptual stability and accurate motor control. Recent work in our...
متن کاملHow Noisy is Lexical Decision?
Lexical decision is one of the most frequently used tasks in word recognition research. Theoretical conclusions are typically derived from a linear model on the reaction times (RTs) of correct word trials only (e.g., linear regression and ANOVA). Although these models estimate random measurement error for RTs, considering only correct trials implicitly assumes that word/non-word categorizations...
متن کاملHow is sensory information processed?
Advances in statistical learning theory leave us with many possible designs of learning machines. But which of them are implemented by brains, metabolic and genetic networks, and other biological information processors? We analyze how abstract Bayesian learners would perform on different data and discuss possible experiments that can determine which learning–theoretic computation is performed b...
متن کاملToward a synthesis of cognitive biases: how noisy information processing can bias human decision making.
A single coherent framework is proposed to synthesize long-standing research on 8 seemingly unrelated cognitive decision-making biases. During the past 6 decades, hundreds of empirical studies have resulted in a variety of rules of thumb that specify how humans systematically deviate from what is normatively expected from their decisions. Several complementary generative mechanisms have been pr...
