Hybrid midbrain neurons respond to contrasts across fluctuation-rate bands

Evidence

This model result motivates further physiological and computational investigation of these cells. The hybrid neuron and model in Fig. 3 are most strongly driven by a contrast in neural fluctuations (i.e., strong neural fluctuations in the 8–30 Hz range and reduced fluctuations in the 30–200 Hz range); other MTF shapes are also observed for hybrid neurons (Krishna and Semple 2000 ). — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 5472
