{ "pk": 31353, "title": "Self-Organization of Auditory Motion Detectors", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "This work addresses the question of how neural networks self-organise to recognize familiar sequential patterns. A neural network model with mild constraints on its initial architecture learns to encode the direction of spectral motion as auditory stimuli excite the units in a tonotopically arranged input layer like that found after peripheral processing by the cochlea. The network consists of a series of inhibitory clusters with excitatory interconnections that self-organize as streams of stimuli excite the clusters over time. Self-organization is achieved by application of the learning heuristics developed by Marshall (1990^ for the self-organization of excitatory and inhibitory pathways in visual motion detection. These heuristics are implemented through linear thresholding equations for unit activation having faster-than-linear inhibitory response. Synaptic weights are learned throughout processing according to the competitive algorithm explored in Malsburg (1973).", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Posters", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1xg3m4s8", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Sven", "middle_name": "E.", "last_name": "Anderson", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Indiana University", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "1992-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/31353/galley/22422/download/" } ] }
