Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Neuron

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Whisking in animals, Sensory system, Communication and Stimulus. The Thalamus, Electrophysiology and Somatosensory system research Ehud Ahissar does as part of his general Neuroscience study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Context, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. The study incorporates disciplines such as Active touch, Spatial reference system and Sensation in addition to Whisking in animals.

His research on Sensory system frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Perception. His research integrates issues of Spatial cues, Spatial frequency, Computer vision and Artificial intelligence in his study of Communication. Ehud Ahissar interconnects Speech processing and Macaque in the investigation of issues within Stimulus.

His most cited work include:

  • 'Where' and 'what' in the whisker sensorimotor system. (424 citations)
  • Speech comprehension is correlated with temporal response patterns recorded from auditory cortex (374 citations)
  • Dependence of cortical plasticity on correlated activity of single neurons and on behavioral context (326 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Neuroscience, Whisking in animals, Sensory system, Artificial intelligence and Computer vision are his primary areas of study. His research on Neuroscience often connects related areas such as Communication. His Whisking in animals research integrates issues from Amplitude and Anatomy, Snout.

His Sensory system course of study focuses on Perception and Cognitive psychology. Ehud Ahissar has researched Computer vision in several fields, including Visual perception, Closed loop, Saccadic masking and Microsaccade. His Electrophysiology research includes elements of Cerebral cortex, Stimulus and Neuron.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (48.48%)
  • Whisking in animals (33.33%)
  • Sensory system (29.55%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Sensory system (29.55%)
  • Perception (15.91%)
  • Artificial intelligence (23.48%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Ehud Ahissar focuses on Sensory system, Perception, Artificial intelligence, Neuroscience and Computer vision. His study on Trigeminal ganglion, Air puff stimulation and Mechanoreceptor is often connected to Kinematics and Context as part of broader study in Sensory system. His research in Perception intersects with topics in Cognitive psychology, Sensation and Cognitive science.

His Artificial intelligence study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Machine learning and Communication. Neuroscience is closely attributed to Reticular connective tissue in his study. The Whisking in animals study combines topics in areas such as Object and Anatomy, Snout, Sniffing.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Perception as a closed-loop convergence process (58 citations)
  • On-going computation of whisking phase by mechanoreceptors. (36 citations)
  • Thalamic Relay or Cortico-Thalamic Processing? Old Question, New Answers (28 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Neuroscience
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Neuron

His main research concerns Sensory system, Whisking in animals, Neuroscience, Anatomy and Facial muscles. The concepts of his Sensory system study are interwoven with issues in Artificial intelligence, Embodied cognition, Perception and Computer vision. The various areas that he examines in his Whisking in animals study include Communication and Sniffing.

In the subject of general Neuroscience, his work in Cerebral cortex, Thalamus and Brainstem is often linked to Structure function, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His Anatomy study incorporates themes from Trigeminal ganglion, Air puff stimulation and Mechanoreceptor. His studies deal with areas such as Stimulation and Nose as well as Facial muscles.
