Whisker Movements Reveal Spatial Attention: A Unified Computational Model of Active Sensing Control in the Rat
Figure 8
(A) Results from model. Solid/dotted/chained lines are maximum/mean/minimum spread within the whisk, against whisk type (see text). (B) Results from behavioural experiment (in rat, [23], their Figure 2b), data re-plotted. (C/D) Stills from model (C) and behavioural experiment (D) showing the trial condition of rat approaching vertical obstacle (three panels in each case show time of maximum protraction in pre-contact, first and second contact whisks). Stills in (C) are taken from Video S7.
