Neural multiplexing vs place coding: Multiplexing steps in when most needed
Sensory scenes contain many different stimuli.
Sensory scenes contain many different stimuli. Two complementary theories about how the brain segregates signals from different stimuli concern (a) time division multiplexing, such that neurons switch between encoding each item over time; and/or (b) place coding, such that…
