Odor Concentration Invariance by Chemical Ratio Coding
Many animal species rely on chemical signals to extract ecologically important information from the environment. Yet in natural conditions chemical signals will frequently undergo concentration changes that produce differences in both level and pattern of activation of olfactory receptor neurons. Thus, a central problem in olfactory processing is how the system is able to recognize the same sti...
متن کاملOdor Concentration Coding in the Olfactory Bulb Glomerulus: The Interval Coding Hypothesis
The interval coding hypothesis suggests that the processing that occurs, due to odor exposure, inside an olfactory bulb glomerulus work to create an interval code over the concentration range, so that different principal cells respond the strongest to different parts of that range. The goal of this project was to investigate the interval coding hypothesis with respect to function and biological...

متن کاملDevelopment of an Odor Concentration Model and Software for Modeling Peak Odor Concentration
Odors, once tolerated as a sign of industrial prosperity are now perceived as an evidence of environmental problems. Increasing complaints from citizens regarding the noxious odors has coerced industries into addressing this "odor issue". Properties of odor are unique, due to the nature of requirements for their measurement. This can be attributed to the subjective responses of humans to variou...
متن کاملConcentration Invariance of Cyclic Species
We examine the concentration invariance of cyclic species for the irreversible polymerization. The simulation results show that the invariance holds in good approximation in the irreversible process also. The validity of the simulation equations employed was confirmed through comparison with the recent experimental observations by the Nagoya university group carried out independently of the pre...
