\section{Developing a functional model of\\the grasshopper auditory pathway}
|
||||
|
||||
The auditory pathway of grasshoppers comprises a number of neuronal stages and
|
||||
identified cell types~(\bcite{rehbein1974structure}; \bcite{rehbein1976auditory}).
|
||||
% Either pick up in intro and/or discussion, or move entirely:
|
||||
The grasshopper auditory system has been studied extensively over the past
|
||||
decades; and a corresponding number of involved neuron types has been
|
||||
described~(\bcite{rehbein1974structure}; \bcite{kalmring1975afferent};
|
||||
\bcite{rehbein1976auditory}; \bcite{eichendorf1980projections}). The model we
|
||||
propose here focuses on the pathway responsible for song recognition and
|
||||
assumes a strict feed-forward organization of three consecutive neuronal
|
||||
populations: Peripheral auditory receptor neurons~\mbox{(1st order)}, local
|
||||
interneurons of the metathoracic ganglion~\mbox{(2nd order)}, and ascending
|
||||
neurons~\mbox{(3rd order)} projecting towards the supraesophageal ganglion.
|
||||
|
||||
Previous authors have reported a marked increase in response heterogenity
|
||||
within the population of ascending neurons compared to receptors and local
|
||||
interneurons, which exhibit almost identical filter characteristics,
|
||||
respectively~(\bcite{clemens2011efficient}). Based on these findings, the model
|
||||
pathway can be divided into two distinct portions~(Fig.\,\ref{fig:pathway}c+d).
|
||||
The pre-processing portion comprises the tympanal membrane, receptors, and
|
||||
local interneurons. Due to the similar response properties within the
|
||||
