Complex spectral interactions encoded by auditory cortical neurons: relationship between bandwidth and pattern
The focus of most research on auditory cortical neurons has concerned the effects of rather
simple stimuli, such as pure tones or broad-band noise, or the modulation of a single …

Nonlinear spectrotemporal interactions underlying selectivity for complex sounds in auditory cortex
S Sadagopan, X Wang - Journal of neuroscience, 2009 - Soc Neuroscience
In the auditory cortex of awake animals, a substantial number of neurons do not respond to
pure tones. These neurons have historically been classified as “unresponsive” and even …

Representation of the temporal envelope of sounds in the human brain
The cerebral representation of the temporal envelope of sounds was studied in five normal-
hearing subjects using functional magnetic resonance imaging. The stimuli were white …

Temporal coherence sensitivity in auditory cortex
DL Barbour, X Wang - Journal of neurophysiology, 2002 - journals.physiology.org
Natural sounds often contain energy over a broad spectral range and consequently overlap
in frequency when they occur simultaneously; however, such sounds under normal …

Diversity in excitation-inhibition mismatch underlies local functional heterogeneity in the rat auditory cortex
Cortical neurons are heterogeneous in their functional properties. This heterogeneity is
fundamental for the processing of different features of sensory information. However …

Separate functional subnetworks of excitatory neurons show preference to periodic and random sound structures
Auditory cortex (ACX) neurons are sensitive to spectro-temporal sound patterns and
violations in patterns induced by rare stimuli embedded within streams of sounds. We …

Level invariant representation of sounds by populations of neurons in primary auditory cortex
S Sadagopan, X Wang - Journal of Neuroscience, 2008 - Soc Neuroscience
A fundamental feature of auditory perception is the constancy of sound recognition over a
large range of intensities. Although this invariance has been described in behavioral …

Synaptic basis for the generation of response variation in auditory cortex
Cortical neurons can exhibit significant variation in their responses to the same sensory
stimuli, as reflected by the reliability and temporal precision of spikes. However the synaptic …

Processing of natural sounds: characterization of multipeak spectral tuning in human auditory cortex
M Moerel, F De Martino, R Santoro… - Journal of …, 2013 - Soc Neuroscience
We examine the mechanisms by which the human auditory cortex processes the frequency
content of natural sounds. Through mathematical modeling of ultra-high field (7 T) functional …
