Topographic maps are salient features of neuronal organization in sensory systems. Inhibitory components of neuronal circuitry are often embedded within this organization, making them difficult to isolate experimentally. The auditory system provides opportunities to study the topographic organization of inhibitory long-range projection nuclei, such as the superior olivary nucleus (SON). We anal...

Dimension-reducing feature extraction neural network techniques which also preserve neighbourhood relationships in data have traditionally been the exclusive domain of Kohonen self organising maps. Recently, we introduced a novel dimension-reducing feature extraction process, which is also topographic, based upon a Radial Basis Function architecture. It has been observed that the gener-alisatio...

This MATLAB interface is aimed at analyzing and integrating two different imaging modalities optical topography system (OTS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI provides information about the anatomical structure of the brain, while OTS displays the changes in the cerebral blood flow in the form of a topographic image. Eight subjects underwent an MRI and OTS exams at Miami Children’s Hosp...
