Toward a realistic model of speech processing in the brain with self-supervised learning

J Millet, C Caucheteux, Y Boubenec… - Advances in …, 2022 - proceedings.neurips.cc
… we (1) convolve the activations (X) of the model with a hemodynamic response function (HRF),
(2) train a ℓ2-penalized linear regression on a training split to map them to brain activity Y

[HTML][HTML] Early selection of task-relevant features through population gating

…, MR DeWeese, S Ostojic, Y Boubenec - Nature …, 2023 - nature.com
Brains can gracefully weed out irrelevant stimuli to guide behavior. This feat is believed to
rely on a progressive selection of task-relevant stimuli across the cortical hierarchy, but the …

[HTML][HTML] Go/No-Go task engagement enhances population representation of target stimuli in primary auditory cortex

…, S David, J Fritz, P Yin, S Shamma, Y Boubenec… - Nature …, 2018 - nature.com
Primary sensory cortices are classically considered to extract and represent stimulus features,
while association and higher-order areas are thought to carry information about stimulus …

Multi-scale mapping along the auditory hierarchy using high-resolution functional UltraSound in the awake ferret

…, S Radtke-Schuller, S Shamma, M Tanter, Y Boubenec - Elife, 2018 - elifesciences.org
10.7554/eLife.35028.001 A major challenge in neuroscience is to longitudinally monitor
whole brain activity across multiple spatial scales in the same animal. Functional UltraSound (…

[HTML][HTML] Whisker encoding of mechanical events during active tactile exploration

Y Boubenec, DE Shulz, G Debrégeas - Frontiers in behavioral …, 2012 - frontiersin.org
Rats use their whiskers to extract a wealth of information about their immediate environment,
such as the shape, position or texture of an object. The information is conveyed to …

[HTML][HTML] Dissociating task acquisition from expression during learning reveals latent knowledge

…, KA Fogelson, R Kumar, Y Boubenec… - Nature …, 2019 - nature.com
… We denote by y the output of the decision unit, with y = 1 for a Go and y = 0 for a No-Go. …
that regulates the asymptotic weights of each synapse, and y is a Hebbian term that requires co-…

Detecting changes in dynamic and complex acoustic environments

Y Boubenec, J Lawlor, U Górska, S Shamma, B Englitz - Elife, 2017 - elifesciences.org
10.7554/eLife.24910.001 Natural sounds such as wind or rain, are characterized by the
statistical occurrence of their constituents. Despite their complexity, listeners readily detect …

Flexible selection of task-relevant features through population gating

…, CC Rodgers, MR DeWeese, S Ostojic, Y Boubenec - BioRxiv, 2022 - biorxiv.org
Brains can gracefully weed out irrelevant stimuli to guide behavior. This feat is believed to
rely on a progressive selection of task-relevant stimuli across the cortical hierarchy, but the …

Distinct higher-order representations of natural sounds in human and ferret auditory cortex

…, S Shamma, S Norman-Haignere, Y Boubenec - Elife, 2021 - elifesciences.org
How the auditory system encodes speech sounds is not well understood, and animal models
have a lot to offer in investigating such questions. This study evaluated the representations …

An amplitude modulation/demodulation scheme for whisker-based texture perception

Y Boubenec, LN Claverie, DE Shulz… - Journal of …, 2014 - Soc Neuroscience
… Right, x- and y-displacement of the node highlighted on the left side. D, y-displacement of
a single node tracked on whisker C2 for several runs under identical scanning conditions (…
