... responsiveness can be modulated by more centrally located protocerebral interneurons ( Bacon et. al, 1995 ; Gray, 2005 ). It is generally understood that appearance-based object recognition is a particularly difficult task because of both the inherent variability of object images and the potentially...

The current study is the first to quantify the magnitude of multisensory enhancement across these mechanosensory and electrosensory systems during moving-object recognition. We used the novelty response of a pulse-type weakly electric fish...

... of stimuli is discriminable and do not give perceptual thresholds. The evidence makes a good but not watertight case that the chicks use tetrachromacy for object recognition. We propose that the outputs of four single cones drive at least three chromatic opponency mechanisms, namely LM, SU and ( L+M...
