Sound-driven modulation of sub- and suprathreshold activity in mouse primary visual cortex

Integration of multimodal information is essential for the integrative response of the brain and is thought to be accomplished mostly in sensory association areas. However, available evidences in humans and monkeys indicate that this process begins already ...

Long-range connectivity of mouse primary somatosensory barrel cortex

Bernard Schneider, Carl Petersen, Rachel Aronoff, Céline Matéo, Ferenc Mátyás

The primary somatosensory barrel cortex processes tactile vibrissae information, allowing rodents to actively perceive spatial and textural features of their immediate surroundings. Each whisker on the snout is individually represented in the neocortex by ...

Sound Field Reconstruction: An Improved Approach For Wave Field Synthesis

Martin Vetterli, Mihailo Kolundzija, Christof Faller

Wave field synthesis (WFS) is a prevalent approach to multiple-loudspeaker sound reproduction for an extended listening area. Although powerful as a theoretical concept, its deployment is hampered by practical limitations due to diffraction, aliasing, and ...

Thanks to geolocalized remote control : the sound will follow

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo, Mathieu Hopmann

Dematerialized music and MP3 players offer to the user the possibility of carrying his musical content everywhere. However, at home, the music collection is generally not centralized, split between different rooms and audio supports (CDs, MP3s, etc). In th ...

Factoring end-user expectations into the sound design process of computer keyboards

Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet

The poor acoustic comfort of usual commercial products is often perceived as annoying. Today, more and more companies have realized that sound can be an important component of product attributes and image. They are interested in having acoustic guidelines ...

Multisensory Interactions within Human Primary Cortices Revealed by BOLD Dynamics

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Reto Meuli, Clotaire Michel

Whether signals from different sensory modalities converge and interact within primary cortices in humans is unresolved, despite emerging evidence in animals. This is partially because of debates concerning the appropriate analyses of functional magnetic r ...

Facilitating sensory responses in developing mouse somatosensory barrel cortex

Carl Petersen, James Poulet

The sensory responses in the barrel cortex of mice aged postnatal day (P)7-P12 evoked by a single whisker deflection are smaller in amplitude and spread over a smaller area than those measured in P13-P21 mice. However, repetitive 10-Hz stimulation or paire ...

Reduced Localizability in Sequences of Narrowband Noise Bursts

Christof Faller, Fritz Menzer

The precedence effect describes perceived localization dominance of a sound event over a sound event arriving 2 to 50 ms later. A related effect, occurring with sequences of 100 ms long narrowband noise bursts, is described. In contrast to classical preced ...

Spatio-temporal coupling of the electric and hemodynamic brain responses in humans

Roberto Martuzzi

Our comprehension of human brain functions and their dynamics has been dramatically improved by recent developments in non-invasive imaging techniques. These methods can be divided into two different categories, according to the nature of the measured sign ...

Cortical motion deafness

Olaf Blanke, Stephanie Clarke

The extent to which the auditory system, like the visual system, processes spatial stimulus characteristics such as location and motion in separate specialized neuronal modules or in one homogeneously distributed network is unresolved. Here we present a pa ...
