Inter-token silence period spiking activity enhances selectivity of distinct groups of auditory cortical neurons to periodic and aperiodic sound sequences

Abstract excerpt

Auditory neurons, in the midbrain and beyond, detect changes in repeating acoustic patterns. Most studies focus on mechanisms underlying such sensitivity and adaptation to regularity. However, regular sound patterns are crucial in social communication, stream-segregation and grouping in different species including humans. Thus, we address cortical selectivity to periodic or aperiodic sound sequences with multiple...
