Visual stimulation decorrelates neuronal activity.
The accuracy of neuronal encoding depends on the response statistics of individual neurons and the correlation of the activity between different neurons. Here, the dynamics of the neuronal response statistics in the anterior superior temporal sulcus of the macaque monkey is described. A transient reduction in the normalized trial-by-trial variability and decorrelation of the responses with both...
متن کاملdecorrelates intrinsic activity fluctuations in Macaque area
Our electrodes were typically separated by approximately 1-3 millimeters. However, because the electrodes are flexible and can bend, we are not confident of the separation of individual penetrations, and therefore cannot make a strong statement about how correlations varied as a function of distance. We can, however, separately analyze pairs recorded on the same electrodes versus different elec...
متن کاملSubthalamic nucleus stimulation modulates thalamic neuronal activity.
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is an effective tool for the treatment of advanced Parkinson's disease. The mechanism by which STN DBS elicits its beneficial effect, however, remains unclear. We previously reported STN stimulation increased the rate and produced a more regular and periodic pattern of neuronal activity in the internal segment of the globus pallidus ...
متن کاملSpatial Attention Decorrelates Intrinsic Activity Fluctuations in Macaque Area V4
Attention typically amplifies neuronal responses evoked by task-relevant stimuli while attenuating responses to task-irrelevant distracters. In this context, visual distracters constitute an external source of noise that is diminished to improve attended signal quality. Activity that is internal to the cortex itself, stimulus-independent ongoing correlated fluctuations in firing, might also act...
متن کاملHigh-amplitude electrical stimulation can reduce elicited neuronal activity in visual prosthesis
Retinal electrostimulation is promising a successful therapy to restore functional vision. However, a narrow stimulating current range exists between retinal neuron excitation and inhibition which may lead to misperformance of visual prostheses. As the conveyance of representation of complex visual scenes may require neighbouring electrodes to be activated simultaneously, electric field summati...
