The goal: understand sensory coding. Vision: example of The end “frequency code”. 2. Visual processing includes: 1. transduction, 2. encoding 3. Adaptation can be thought of as self inhibition. 4. Most sensory neurons behave as temporal filters: adaptation (tonic vs. phasic) 5. Linear systems analysis can also be used to describe spatial effects such as lateral inhibition. 6. Convolution can be used to predict responses to arbitrary stimuli. 59 10
