Book excerpt: The full power of combining experiment and theory has yet to be unleashed on studies of the neural mechanisms in the brain involved in acoustic information processing. In recent years, enormous amounts of physiological data have been generated in many laboratories around the world, characterizing electrical responses of neurons to a wide array of acoustic stimuli at all levels of the auditory neuroaxis. Modern approaches of cellular and molecular biology are leading to new understandings of synaptic transmission of acoustic information, while application of modern neuro-anatomical methods is giving us a fairly comprehensive view ofthe bewildering complexity of neural circuitry within and between the major nuclei of the central auditory pathways. Although there is still the need to gather more data at all levels of organization, a ma jor challenge in auditory neuroscience is to develop new frameworks within which existing and future data can be incorporated and unified, and which will guide future laboratory ex perimentation. Here the field can benefit greatly from neural modeling, which in the central auditory system is still in its infancy. Indeed, such an approach is essential if we are to address questions related to perception of complex sounds including human speech, to the many di mensions of spatial hearing, and to the mechanisms that underlie complex acoustico-motor behaviors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Cortical auditory processing is critical for speech perception, yet we understand little about how the neural representations available at the cortical level allow for sound recognition. In particular, the neural mechanisms for recognition of sounds via spiking patterns are currently unknown, and the characterization of auditory cortical neuron response properties using stimulus-response models remains incomplete. Previous work has shown that spike trains can be used to discriminate between sounds using analytical methods, but how biological circuits might perform such computations remains unclear. Therefore we devised a model for discrimination (inspired by a spike distance metric) that combines a network of integrate-and-fire model neurons with a decision network. We applied this model to the birdsong system, a powerful animal model for the study of audition. We then examined how stimuli could be recognized by sensory systems from spiking patterns by transforming spiking patterns into spatial representations. Previous "spike pattern recognition" models used artificially pre-processed and noiseless signals as input, despite the fact that neural spike trains show variability. Therefore, we used cortical-level neural recordings as input to a novel spike pattern recognition system designed to deal with the intrinsic variability and diverse response properties of cortical spike trains. We show that the model can learn to recognize neural responses to auditory stimuli using spike-timing dependent plasticity, and can play back learned spike patterns in reverse, not unlike the reverse spike train playback observed in hippocampus. A standard model for central auditory neurons is the spectro-temporal receptive field (STRF), which quantifies the spectral and temporal stimulus parameters that modulate neural activity. While the STRF has been used to predict neural responses, a causal connection between the STRF structure and neural responses is lacking. We used an adaptive stimulation paradigm to address this problem. Specifically, for each neuron, we filtered out stimulus frequencies predicted to be unimportant by the STRF (estimated using normalized reverse correlation), and measured responses to these stimuli. For some neurons, this filtering had little effect on neural firing, but adding a noise masker in the unimportant frequency regions adversely affected their responses, suggesting that frequency regions outside the STRF can play a role in determining neural responses.

Book excerpt: The symposium that has provided the basis for this book, "Plasticity of the Central Auditory System and Processing of Complex Acoustic Signals" was held in Prague on July 7-10, 2003. This is the fourth in a series of seminal meetings summarizing the state of development of auditory system neuroscience that has been organized in that great world city. Books that have resulted from these meetings represent important benchmarks for auditory neuroscience over the past 25 years. A 1980 meeting, "Neuronal Mechanisms of Hearing" hosted the most distinguished hearing researchers focusing on underlying brain processes from this era. It resulted in a highly influential and widely subscribed and cited proceedings co-edited by professor Lindsay Aitkin. The subject of the 1987 meeting was the "Auditory Pathway - Structure and Function". It again resulted in another important update of hearing science research in a widely referenced book - edited by the late Bruce Masterton. While the original plan was to hold a meeting summarizing the state of auditory system neuroscience every 7 years, historical events connected with the disintegration of the Soviet Empire and return of freedom to Czechoslovakia resulted in an unavoidable delay of what was planned to be a 1994 meeting. It wasn't until 1996 that we were able to meet for the third time in Prague, at that time to review "Acoustical Signal Processing in the Central Auditory System".

This book was released on 2009 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Each year as many as 3/1000 children are diagnosed with congenital sensorineural hearing loss. Common in these children are delays in grammar comprehension, vocabulary retention and speech development, related to temporal processing abilities. Studies in a mouse model of congenital sensorineural hearing loss suggest that early exposure to an augmented acoustic environment (AAE) limits outer hair cell death and maintains peripheral auditory thresholds. However, there have been no studies on the effects of AAE on neural encoding in the central auditory system. The goal of these experiments is to investigate midbrain auditory processing in a mouse model (the DBA strain) of sensorineural hearing loss, and determine the effects of AAE exposure. It is clear that sound exposure during the early developmental period has profound effects on neural processing in the central auditory system of normal-hearing subjects. Questions remain on the effects of such sound exposure on a model of hearing impairment. In Aim I of this study we presented a novel temporal AAE containing silent gaps embedded in noise bursts to DBA mice and examined the frequency representation, intensity encoding and temporal processing in the auditory midbrain. Mice were exposed to a traditional AAE stimulus, a novel temporal AAE stimulus, or no stimulus from birth to P30. Auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) and distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) were recorded to assess peripheral auditory function. To assess the effects on central auditory processing we recorded neural activity from a 16-channel electrode in the inferior colliculus (IC). We confirmed peripheral preservation with AAE exposure, and expanded these results to demonstrate outer hair cell functional preservation. In the midbrain we demonstrated that IC neurons showed decreased thresholds, that high best-frequency units were maintained, tuning sharpness was improved, excitatory drive was increased and most importantly, units displayed shorter neural gap thresholds. Additionally, only mice exposed to our novel temporal AAE demonstrated significantly shortened mean gap threshold at low carrier levels, and in the presence of continuous background noise. To be useful as a therapeutic intervention the effect of onset time on central auditory function must be examined. Additionally, it is not known if the improvements provided by AAE exposure will remain after exposure cessation. In Aim II of this study we asked whether delaying the exposure onset or altering its duration influence the improvements in neural processing noted above. Again DBA mice were exposed to a traditional AAE stimulus or no stimulus from birth to P60. Two additional groups were included, one exposed for 30 days followed by 30 days of no exposure (On/Off), the other not exposed until P30 followed by 30 days of exposure (Off/On). All animals were tested at P60. Again ABRs and DPOAEs were recorded to assess peripheral auditory function, and central auditory processing was measured using a 16-channel electrode in the IC. We determined that the onset time of exposure is of little importance in demonstrating improvements in both peripheral and central auditory system. However, continued exposure is essential to maintain the beneficial effects and limit functional loss. Our results demonstrate that AAE preserves peripheral structure and function and improves central auditory processing, that a targeted temporal AAE can improve neural correlates of temporal processing, and that the timing of AAE is essential in delaying the progression of sensorineural hearing loss. These experiments pave the way for possible therapeutic intervention in children suffering congenital sensorineural hearing loss."--Leaves v-vi.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The significantly expanded and updated new edition of a widely used text on reinforcement learning, one of the most active research areas in artificial intelligence. Reinforcement learning, one of the most active research areas in artificial intelligence, is a computational approach to learning whereby an agent tries to maximize the total amount of reward it receives while interacting with a complex, uncertain environment. In Reinforcement Learning, Richard Sutton and Andrew Barto provide a clear and simple account of the field's key ideas and algorithms. This second edition has been significantly expanded and updated, presenting new topics and updating coverage of other topics. Like the first edition, this second edition focuses on core online learning algorithms, with the more mathematical material set off in shaded boxes. Part I covers as much of reinforcement learning as possible without going beyond the tabular case for which exact solutions can be found. Many algorithms presented in this part are new to the second edition, including UCB, Expected Sarsa, and Double Learning. Part II extends these ideas to function approximation, with new sections on such topics as artificial neural networks and the Fourier basis, and offers expanded treatment of off-policy learning and policy-gradient methods. Part III has new chapters on reinforcement learning's relationships to psychology and neuroscience, as well as an updated case-studies chapter including AlphaGo and AlphaGo Zero, Atari game playing, and IBM Watson's wagering strategy. The final chapter discusses the future societal impacts of reinforcement learning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solid and transparent data analysis is the most important basis for reliable interpretation of experiments. The technique of parallel spike train recordings using multi-electrode arrangements has been available for many decades now, but only recently gained wide popularity among electro physiologists. Many traditional analysis methods are based on firing rates obtained by trial-averaging, and some of the assumptions for such procedures to work can be ignored without serious consequences. The situation is different for correlation analysis, the result of which may be considerably distorted if certain critical assumptions are violated. The focus of this book is on concepts and methods of correlation analysis (synchrony, patterns, rate covariance), combined with a solid introduction into approaches for single spike trains, which represent the basis of correlations analysis. The book also emphasizes pitfalls and potential wrong interpretations of data due to violations of critical assumptions.
