The biological olfactory system is the sensory system responsible for the detection of the
chemical composition of the environment. Several attempts to mimic biological olfactory …

Olfaction is often referred to as a multidimensional sense. It is multidimensional in that∼
1000 different receptor types, each tuned to particular odor aspects, together contribute to …

We present a neural algorithm for the rapid online learning and identification of odourant
samples under noise, based on the architecture of the mammalian olfactory bulb and …

In many regions of the visual system, the activity of a neuron is normalized by the activity of
other neurons in the same region. Here we show that a similar normalization occurs during …

Smelling monomolecular odors hardly ever occurs in everyday life, and the daily functioning
of the sense of smell relies primarily on the processing of complex mixtures of volatiles that …

We explored the map of odor space created by glomeruli on the olfactory bulb of both rat
and mouse. Identified glomeruli could be matched across animals by their response profile …

Systematic map** studies involving 365 odorant chemicals have shown that glomerular
responses in the rat olfactory bulb are organized spatially in patterns that are related to the …

For animals to execute odor-driven behaviors, the olfactory system must process complex
odor signals and maintain stimulus identity in the face of constantly changing odor …

Modern neuroscience has demonstrated how the adult brain has the ability to profoundly
remodel its neurons in response to changes in external stimuli or internal states. However …

The responses of neural elements in many sensory areas of the brain vary systematically
with their physical position, leading to a topographic representation of the outside world …
