Measuring the Functional Organization of the Neocortex at Large and Small Scales
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sensory cortices are commonly structured topographically; however, the extent to which this organization principle is preserved at the microcircuit level is debated. In this issue of Neuron, Issa et al. (2014) revisit this question by combining calcium imaging in awake mice at large scales encompassing the whole auditory cortex and small scales providing single-cell resolution.

Measuring technological gap ratio of wheat production using StoNED approach to metafrontier
The aim of this paper is to use the concept of the metafrontier function to study the determination of efficiency differentials and Technological Gap Ratio (TGR) on wheat production in Khorasan Razavi province. In this study, we used the metafrontier function and group frontier based on the concept of Stochastic Nonparametric Envelopment of Data analysis (StoNED). The data used in this stud...
متن کاملP15: Hippocampus-Neocortical Communication in Learning
The hippocampus is located in the medial temporal lobe and is a part of the forebrain. It plays a critical role in formation of declared memories. The hippocampus is banana­-shaped and communicates with all parts of neocortex. Reptiles and birds have structures like hippocampus that potentially serve as navigation functions. During the mammalian evolution, the neocortex has a large expansio...
متن کاملStructural-Functional Dynamism: An Alternative Approach to Spatial
Spatial planning approaches along with complication of societies are being changed. These changes and transformations have reflected themselves in increasing diversification of economic patterns, people, group, organization, and institution’s mobility. While in less developed network societies some of the concepts including “distance” and “movement “are relatively losing their importance , some...
متن کاملEffects of network resolution on topological properties of human neocortex
Graph theoretical analyses applied to neuroimaging datasets have provided valuable insights into the large-scale anatomical organization of the human neocortex. Most of these studies were performed with different cortical scales leading to cortical networks with different levels of small-world organization. The present study investigates how resolution of thickness-based cortical scales impacts...
متن کاملEvaluation of Updating Methods in Building Blocks Dataset
With the increasing use of spatial data in daily life, the production of this data from diverse information sources with different precision and scales has grown widely. Generating new data requires a great deal of time and money. Therefore, one solution is to reduce costs is to update the old data at different scales using new data (produced on a similar scale). One approach to updating data i...
