  • finding the Event Structure of neuronal spike trains
    Neural Computation, 2011
    Co-Authors: Vincent J Toups, Jeanmarc Fellous, Peter J Thomas, Terrence J Sejnowski, Paul H E Tiesinga
    Abstract:

    Neurons in sensory systems convey information about physical stimuli in their spike trains. In vitro, single neurons respond precisely and reliably to the repeated injection of the same fluctuating current, producing regions of elevated firing rate, termed Events. Analysis of these spike trains reveals that multiple distinct spike patterns can be identified as trial-to-trial correlations between spike times (Fellous, Tiesinga, Thomas, & Sejnowski, 2004). Finding Events in data with realistic spiking statistics is challenging because Events belonging to different spike patterns may overlap. We propose a method for finding spiking Events that uses contextual information to disambiguate which pattern a trial belongs to. The procedure can be applied to spike trains of the same neuron across multiple trials to detect and separate responses obtained during different brain states. The procedure can also be applied to spike trains from multiple simultaneously recorded neurons in order to identify volleys of near-synchronous activity or to distinguish between excitatory and inhibitory neurons. The procedure was tested using artificial data as well as recordings in vitro in response to fluctuating current waveforms.

  • viewpoint in speech gesture integration linguistic Structure discourse Structure and Event Structure
    Language and Cognitive Processes, 2010
    Co-Authors: Fey Parrill
    Abstract:

    We examine a corpus of narrative data to determine which types of Events evoke character viewpoint gestures, and which evoke observer viewpoint gestures. We consider early claims made by McNeill (1992) that character viewpoint tends to occur with transitive utterances and utterances that are causally central to the narrative. We argue that the Structure of the Event itself must be taken into account: there are some Events that cannot plausibly evoke both types of gesture. We show that linguistic Structure (transitivity), Event Structure (visuo-spatial and motoric properties), and discourse Structure all play a role. We apply these findings to a recent model of embodied language production, the Gestures as Simulated Action framework.
