Self-motion and the shaping of sensory signals.
Sensory systems must form stable representations of the external environment in the presence of self-induced variations in sensory signals. It is also possible that the variations themselves may provide useful information about self-motion relative to the external environment. Rats have been shown to be capable of fine texture discrimination and object localization based on palpation by facial ...
متن کاملA unified internal model theory to resolve the paradox of active versus passive self-motion sensation
Brainstem and cerebellar neurons implement an internal model to accurately estimate self-motion during externally generated ('passive') movements. However, these neurons show reduced responses during self-generated ('active') movements, indicating that predicted sensory consequences of motor commands cancel sensory signals. Remarkably, the computational processes underlying sensory prediction d...
متن کاملThe Comparison of the Components of Psychological Well-Being in Mothers of Adolescents with and without Sensory Impairment
Introduction: Adolescents with sensory impairment, in addition to regular problems of other adolescents, have problems related to their impairment, so this situation can affect the stress and mental health of parents, in particular, mothers. Regarding the role of mothers' psychological well-being in shaping the behavior and character of adolescents and their social relationships, the purpose of...
متن کاملEarly vestibular processing does not discriminate active from passive self-motion if there is a discrepancy between predicted and actual proprioceptive feedback.
Most of our sensory experiences are gained by active exploration of the world. While the ability to distinguish sensory inputs resulting of our own actions (termed reafference) from those produced externally (termed exafference) is well established, the neural mechanisms underlying this distinction are not fully understood. We have previously proposed that vestibular signals arising from self-g...
متن کاملExtraction of Sensory part of Ulnar Nerve Signal Using Blind Source Separation Method
A recorded nerve signal via an electrode is composed of many evokes or action potentials, (originated from individual axons) which may be considered as different initial sources. Recovering these primitive sources in its turn may lead us to the anatomic originations of a nerve signal which will give us outstanding foresights in neural rehabilitations. Accordingly, clinical interests may be r...
