Sensitivity of central auditory neurons to frequency modulated (FM) sound is often
characterized based on spectro-temporal receptive field (STRF), which is generated by …

Spectro-temporal receptive fields (STRFs) are commonly used to characterize response
properties of central auditory neurons and for visualizing'trigger features'. However, trigger …

Frequency modulation (FM) is an important building block of communication signals for
animals and human. Attempts to predict the response of central neurons to FM sounds have …

Knowledge on the trigger features of central auditory neurons is important in the
understanding of speech processing. Spectro-temporal receptive fields (STRFs) obtained …

Neurons in the central auditory system are often described by the spectrotemporal receptive
field (STRF), conventionally defined as the best linear fit between the spectrogram of a …

Auditory nerve fibers (ANFs) encode pure tones through two modes of coding, spike time
and spike rate, depending on the tone frequency. In response to a low-frequency tone, ANF …

Understanding neural responses to natural stimuli has become an essential part of
characterizing neural coding. For this reason, it is becoming increasingly important to …

Frequency tuning of auditory cortical neurons is typically determined by integrating spikes
over the entire duration of a tone stimulus. However, this approach may mask functionally …

Temporal variability of neuronal response characteristics during sensory stimulation is a
ubiquitous phenomenon that may reflect processes such as stimulus-driven adaptation, top …

Mammals perceive a wide range of temporal cues in natural sounds, and the auditory cortex
is essential for their detection and discrimination. The rat primary (A1), ventral (VAF), and …
