Neural basis of multisensory looming signals
Approaching or looming signals are often related to extremely relevant environmental events (e.g. threats or collisions) making these signals critical for survival. However, the neural network underlying multisensory looming processing is not yet fully understood. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) we identified the neural correlates of audiovisual looming processing in humans: ...
متن کاملTouching sounds: thalamocortical plasticity and the neural basis of multisensory integration.
To date, noninvasive neuroimaging research on multisensory perception has focused on cortical activations. In a series of elegant functional magnetic resonance imaging experiments, Beauchamp and Ro recently investigated altered cortical activations associated with acquired sound-touch synesthesia resulting from a thalamic lesion. Their findings highlight the important role of intact thalamocort...
متن کاملDecentralized Multisensory Information Integration in Neural Systems.
UNLABELLED How multiple sensory cues are integrated in neural circuitry remains a challenge. The common hypothesis is that information integration might be accomplished in a dedicated multisensory integration area receiving feedforward inputs from the modalities. However, recent experimental evidence suggests that it is not a single multisensory brain area, but rather many multisensory brain ar...
متن کاملMultilayer neural networks and Bayes decision theory
There are many applications of multilayer neural networks to pattern classification problems in the engineering field. Recently, it has been shown that Bayes a posteriori probability can be estimated by feedforward neural networks through computer simulation. In this paper, Bayes decision theory is combined with the approximation theory on three-layer neural networks, and the two-category n-dim...
متن کاملDissecting neural circuits for multisensory integration and crossmodal processing.
We rely on rich and complex sensory information to perceive and understand our environment. Our multisensory experience of the world depends on the brain's remarkable ability to combine signals across sensory systems. Behavioural, neurophysiological and neuroimaging experiments have established principles of multisensory integration and candidate neural mechanisms. Here we review how targeted m...
