Organizing Principles of Spectro-Temporal Encoding in the Avian Primary Auditory Area Field L
The organization of postthalamic auditory areas remains unclear in many respects. Using a stimulus based on properties of natural sounds, we mapped spectro-temporal receptive fields (STRFs) of neurons in the primary auditory area field L of unanesthetized zebra finches. Cells were sensitive to only a subset of possible acoustic features: nearly all neurons were narrowly tuned along the spectral...
متن کاملSpectro-temporal response field characterization with dynamic ripples in ferret primary auditory cortex.
To understand the neural representation of broadband, dynamic sounds in primary auditory cortex (AI), we characterize responses using the spectro-temporal response field (STRF). The STRF describes, predicts, and fully characterizes the linear dynamics of neurons in response to sounds with rich spectro-temporal envelopes. It is computed from the responses to elementary "ripples," a family of sou...
متن کاملSpectro-temporal interactions in auditory and auditory-visual speech processing
Speech recognition often involves the face-to-face communication between two or more individuals. The combined influences of auditory and visual speech information leads to a remarkably robust signal that is greatly resistant to noise, reverberation, hearing loss, and other forms of signal distortion. Studies of auditory-visual speech processing have revealed that speechreading interacts with a...
متن کاملStability of spectro-temporal tuning over several seconds in primary auditory cortex of the awake ferret.
The steady-state spectro-temporal tuning of auditory cortical cells has been studied using a variety of broadband stimuli that characterize neurons by their steady-state responses to long duration stimuli, lasting from about a second to several minutes. Central sensory stations are thought to adapt in their response to stimuli presented over extended periods of time. For instance, we have previ...
متن کاملDynamics of Spectro - Temporal Tuning in Primary Auditory Cortex of the Ferret
In this paper, we explore spectro-temporal tuning in primary auditory cortex following a sudden change in spectro-temporal content. We previously characterized the steady-state spectrotemporal tuning properties of cortical cells with respect to broadband sounds by presenting sounds with a spectro-temporal envelope of constant spectral density and angular frequency for several seconds. However, ...
