2. What tuning can generalise e.g the same neuron can detect a stimulus based on similarity to a prototypical representation?
- Response tuning
- Broad tuning
- Detector tuning
- Specific tuning
3. Which of these is NOT true of the firing rates of neurons?
- Represent certainty of processing
- Be interpreted as the probability the particular stimulus is present
- Reflect and represent uncertainty
- Signal a degree of match between input and 'preferred value'
4. In a raster plot, what does a dot represent?
- A spike
- An experimental trial
- Time
- How many spikes fired in a given period
5. What are 2 issues with the detector analogy?
- There is ambiguity in the firing rate in individual neurons and the threshold for each 'detector' is poorly defined with current technology
- Is a unique neuron required for every perceivable percept/concept/action and there is ambiguity in the firing rate in individual neurons
