6. Phenomenological modelling of sensory integration phenomena using self-organized feature maps
Sammanfattning : The main contribution of the work presented herein is a method of transferring information from one lattice of artificial neural units to another. The essence of the present method consists of four parts: (1) the wrapping of the artificial neural lattice into a module that given an input to this lattice outputs normalized coordinates for the location of peak activity and the magnitude of the activity at that location; (2) the inter-module exchange of information being carried out by using the coordinates of the neuron that respond the strongest to the input given to the artificial neural lattice; (3) the concept of the transformation map which re-maps normalized coordinates from one module's output space on another's; and (4) fusion carried out by summation of activity fields induced by artificial neural lattices.

7. Neural and behavioral plasticity in olfactory sensory deprivation
Sammanfattning : The human brain has a remarkable ability to reorganize as a consequence of altered demands. This ability is particularly noticeable when studying the neural effects of complete sensory deprivation. LÄS MER
8. Preferensbedömningar av ljudintensiteter : en jämförelse mellan sensoriska och preferentiella bedömningstyper
Sammanfattning : Preference as a motivational concept was considered as an organismic disposition and a model which contained a region with three distinct points of preference was tested according to correspondence with.sensory data. The preference region was limited by an upper and a lower limit and in between there was a maximum point of preference. LÄS MER
9. Where imagination meets sensation : mental imagery, perception and multisensory integration
Sammanfattning : What happens if we imagine seeing something while we are listening to something? Will it change what we hear? What happens if we imagine hearing something while we are looking at something? Will it change what we see? In everyday perception, our brains integrate the information provided to us by our different senses in order to form a coherent perception of the world around us in a process referred to as multisensory integration. However, sometimes the information provided to our senses arises from within, as is the case when we imagine a sensory stimulus; for example, when you picture in your mind the face of a loved one, or imagine how they sound when they say your name.

10. Generation of functional neural progenitors for spinal cord transplantation
Sammanfattning : Dorsal root avulsion injuries result in permanent impairment of sensory functions due to the disconnection of the peripheral nervous system from the spinal cord. Strategies aiming for the functional reconnection of sensory neurons with their targets in the spinal cord dorsal horn need to overcome the axonal growth non-permissive glial scar and provide a growth promoting environment.
