A Cortical Model of Cognitive 40
نویسنده
چکیده
We have developed a neural network architecture that implements a theory of attention, learning, and trans-cortical communication based on adaptive synchronization of 5-15 Hz and 30-80 Hz oscillations between cortical areas. Here we present a speciic higher order cortical model of attentional networks, rhythmic expectancy, and the interaction of higher-order and primary cortical levels of processing. It accounts for the \mismatch negativity" of the auditory ERP and the results of psychological experiments of Jones showing that auditory stream segregation can depend on the rhythmic structure of inputs. The timing mechanisms of the model allow us to explain how relative timing information such as the relative order of events between streams is lost when streams are formed. The model suggests how the theories of auditory perception and attention of Jones and Bregman may be reconciled.

Topographical evaluation of aphasia based on brain vascular territories
Topographical evaluation of aphasic brain lesions can enhance our knowledge of cognitive physiology and plasticity. This prospective study was conducted on 100 stroke-afflicted patients with aphasia admitted in Valie-Asr Hospital (Khorasan, Iran) in 2003. Topography of infarct lesions was detected by a neurologist based on the map of brain vascular territories in CT-scan. Aphasic lesions catego...

متن کاملDifferential Cortical Oscillatory Patterns in Amputees with and Without Phantom Limb Pain
Objective: Phantom limb pain (PLP) as neuropathic pain affects the life of amputees. It is believed an efficient PLP treatment should consider the underlying neurological mechanisms. Hereby, we investigated brain activity in PLP’s and relations to the psychological and cognitive dimension of chronic pain. We investigate differences in resting brain activities between amputees with and without p...
