Similarly, in the tactile modality, radial patterns of stimuli provide information on softness of probed objects [A. Bicchi, D. De Rossi, E.P. Scilingo, The role of the contact area spread rate (CASR) in haptic discrimination of softness, IEEE Trans. Rob. Autom. 16 (2000) 496 504].
To date, no study has examined patterns of stimuli and responses through a unifying framework of uncertainty.
Overall, our study represents a promising first step in the application of an uncertainty-based framework to describe the patterns of stimuli, visual search strategy, and responses.
The patterns of stimuli predicted under normal muscle contractions indicated that several territories and tissues developing within the interzone experience specific patterns of stimulation [initially described in 30, Figure 5].
We previously [29] created a FE model from morphologically accurate 3D data captured from the developing chick tibiotarsus to simulate the dynamic patterns of stimuli generated by muscle contraction.
In the interzone the patterns of stimuli predicted under normal and immobilised situations is similar but of course the forces are static rather than dynamic underlining the importance of dynamic stimuli, also observed in the response of cells in culture [49], [50].
A striking correspondence between the patterns of stimuli and the dynamics of ossification was noted and we further showed that in an altered mechanical environment ossification was reduced and the in vivo expression of a number of genes involved in bone formation was altered [13].
Firstly, our aim was to examine the patterns of stimulus-locked N200 waveforms during frequency mismatch detection in relation to correct versus incorrect responses.
All stimulus types elicited significantly more SPI θ power than ISI θ power (see Figures 6a c, column 1); this finding was consistent with the patterns of stimulus-induced θ increase observed in Figure 3 (column 1).
