From stimulus estimation to combination sensitivity: encoding and processing of amplitude and timing information in parallel, convergent sensory pathways.

abstract：:Many different neural models have been proposed to account for major characteristics of the memory phenomenon family in primates. However, in spite of the large body of neurophysiological, anatomical and behavioral data, there is no direct evidence for supporting one model while falsifying the others. And yet, we can ...
