Abstract

During sensory-guided motor tasks, information must be transferred from arrays of neurons coding target location to motor networks that generate and control movement. We address two basic questions about this information transfer. First, what mechanisms assure that the different neural representations align properly so that activity in the sensory network representing target location evokes a motor response generating accurate movement toward the target? Coordinate transformations may be needed to put the sensory data into a form appropriate for use by the motor system. For example, in visually guided reaching the location of a target relative to the body is determined by a combination of the position of its image on the retina and the direction of gaze. What assures that the motor network responds to the appropriate combination of sensory inputs corresponding to target position in body- or arm-centered coordinates ? To answer these questions, we model a sensory network coding target p...
