The nature of economical coding is determined by the unique properties of objects in the environment
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 April 2008
Abstract
The physical properties that signify objects differ dramatically, so that the organization of sensory systems must reflect those differences. Although all senses may encode peripheral sensory information using across-fiber firing distributions, an economical coding system for each sense will necessarily differ. An economical code must maximize information about objects, whether they are predators or foods.
