Spatio temporal receptive field
- Spatio temporal receptive field
The spatio temporal receptive field (STRF) of a neuron represents which types of stimuli excite or inhibit that neuron. If linearity is assumed, the neuron can be modelled as having a time-varying firing rate equal to the convolution of the stimulus with the STRF.
Auditory STRFs
The example STRF here is for an auditory neuron from the area CM of a male zebra finch, when played
This STRF was generated with [http://strfpak.berkeley.edu/] STRFPAK: free software (registration required) to help estimate STRFs.
Visual STRFs
Visual STRFs can have the same dimension as movies.
