The electric sense combines spatial aspects of vision and touch with temporal features of
audition. Its accessible neural architecture shares similarities with mammalian sensory …

Many cortical neurons combine the information ascending and descending the cortical
hierarchy. In the classical view, this information is combined nonlinearly to give rise to a …

The coding of stimulus information into patterns of spike times occurs widely in sensory
systems. Determining how temporally coded information is decoded by central neurons is …

Natural stimuli often have time-varying first-order (ie, mean) and second-order (ie, variance)
attributes that each carry critical information for perception and can vary independently over …

Interactions among animals can result in complex sensory signals containing a variety of
socially relevant information, including the number, identity, and relative motion of …

Neurons across sensory systems and organisms often display complex patterns of action
potentials in response to sensory input. One example of such a pattern is the tendency of …

The encoding and processing of time-dependent signals into sequences of action potentials
of sensory neurons is still a challenging theoretical problem. Although, with some effort, it is …

Coordinated sensory and motor system activity leads to efficient localization behaviours; but
what neural dynamics enable object tracking and what are the underlying coding principles …

Burst firing is ubiquitous in nervous systems and has been intensively studied in central
pattern generators (CPGs). Previous works have described subtle intraburst spike patterns …

The ability to discriminate spikes that encode a particular stimulus from spikes produced by
background activity is essential for reliable information processing in the brain. We describe …
