The Role of Inhibition in a Computational Model of an Auditory Cortical Neuron during the Encoding of Temporal Information
Fig 1
Schematic of synchronized and non-synchronized responses from auditory cortical neurons in response to acoustic pulse trains generating flutter and fusion percepts.
Each plot is subdivided (from top to bottom) into an illustration of the acoustic pulse train (gray), and the evoked neural response from synchronized neurons (red) and non-synchronized neurons (blue). The inset plot in (a) shows a single acoustic pulse (5 kHz carrier frequency). a. An acoustic pulse train generating a flutter percept (interpulse interval = 50 ms). b. An acoustic pulse train generating a fusion percept (interpulse interval = 10 ms).
