Moreover, we evaluated the spatial and temporal somatosensory integration recording the somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) evoked by a dual nerve input to investigate the contribution of
lateral inhibition in the somatosensory system.
Pribram showed that sense information is only registered in experience following a special process in the cortex concerned, known as the Inhibition of
Lateral Inhibition (ILI).
The cortex is endowed with powerful
lateral inhibition, which prevents the spread of epileptogenic stimulus into surrounding regions.
As it will be seen later on, if a pixel is not directly or indirectly bound by means of
lateral inhibition mechanisms to a maximally charged pixel, it goes down to the total discharge with time.
The localist connectionist models predict such a pattern of results due to the
lateral inhibition occurring between the same level layers in the two languages.
Baumgartner claimed perception of the ID was the result of
lateral inhibition in the receptive fields of ganglion cells.
"
Lateral inhibition" (when light-sensitive nerve cells in the retina inhibit dozens of their near neighbors) was first observed in horseshoe crabs by physiologist H.
Such a situation would provide evidence of
lateral inhibition, which is a form of peripheral processing seen most commonly in the vertebrate retina.
As mentioned above, the substrate for inhibitory hyperpolarization processes (realization of direct, recurrent, and
lateral inhibition through the "switching" of excitatory influences via inhibitory interneurons) is available practically in all the studied brain structures.
Central tinnitus and
lateral inhibition: An auditory brainstem model.
The role of
lateral inhibition in ambiguity resolution
Lateral inhibition, excitation, and the circadian rhythm of the Limulus compound eye.
