S.Ch.1 6. Recordings of individual neurons enable us to measure the lowest level of a stimulus required for a neuron to fire (absolute threshold). Both the rate and the timing pattern of neuronal firing provide additional information about how the brain encodes stimuli in the world. 7. Neuroimaging methods have revolutionised the study of sensation and perception by allowing us to study the brain in healthy, living human observers. Useful methods include electroencephalography (EEG), magnetoencephalography (MEG), positron emission tomography (PET), and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Each comes with its own combination of temporal and spatial properties, making one method suitable for researching some questions and other methods more suitable for other questions.

8. Computational models have become more useful than ever for revealing ways through which sensation and perception develop through experience. What all of these models have in common is that the world has predictability that can be exploited to make the senses more attuned to the world. 9. Deep learning algorithms are powerful tools that can take in vast amounts of data (e.g., pictures) and categorise it (That’s a cat). Such tools may become important in applications like autonomous driving or detecting cancer in medical images.
