The representation of an odor goes through multiple transformations in different layers of the
olfactory system. At the olfactory receptor neuron layer odor attributes are encoded by the …

Recent studies of the olfactory bulb (vertebrates) and antennal lobe (insects) have
elucidated how odor information is represented by the identity, synchronization, slow …

The olfactory bulb receives signals from olfactory sensory neurons and conveys them to
higher centers. The mapping of the sensory inputs generates a reproducible spatial pattern …

This paper presents a neuromorphic model of two olfactory signal-processing primitives:
chemotopic convergence of olfactory receptor neurons, and center on-off surround lateral …

Across species, primary olfactory centers show similarities both in their cellular organization
and their types of olfactory information coding. In this article, we consider an excitatory …

In a variety of neuronal systems it has been hypothesized that inhibitory interneurons corral
principal neurons into synchronously firing groups that encode sensory information and sub …

The insect olfactory system can be a model for artificial olfactory devices. In particular,
Drosophila melanogaster due to its genetic tractability has yielded much information about …

The olfactory system maps complex and high dimensional stimuli (odors) into unique and
reproducible dynamic ensembles of neuronal activity. In the insect, olfactory receptor …

Neuronal networks exhibit a rich dynamical repertoire, a consequence of both the intrinsic
properties of neurons and the structure of the network. It has been hypothesized that …

Recordings from neurons in the insects' olfactory primary processing center, the antennal
lobe (AL), reveal that the AL is able to process the input from chemical receptors into distinct …
