Cerebellum and Sequences: BBS Call for Commentators

by harnad＠cogsci.soton.ac.uk

Below is the abstract of a forthcoming target article on: THE DETECTION AND GENERATION OF SEQUENCES AS A KEY TO CEREBELLAR FUNCTION. EXPERIMENTS AND THEORY by V. Braitenberg, D. Heck and F. Sultan This article has been accepted for publication in Behavioral and Brain Sciences (BBS), an international, interdisciplinary journal providing Open Peer Commentary on important and controversial current research in the biobehavioral and cognitive sciences. Commentators must be current BBS Associates or nominated by a current BBS Associate. To be considered as a commentator for this article, to suggest other appropriate commentators, or for information about how to become a BBS Associate, please send email to: bbs(a)ecs.soton.ac.uk or write to: Behavioral and Brain Sciences Department of Psychology University of Southampton Highfield, Southampton SO17 1BJ UNITED KINGDOM http://cogsci.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~harnad/bbs.html gopher://gopher.princeton.edu:70/11/.libraries/.pujournals ftp://ftp.princeton.edu/pub/harnad/BBS To help us put together a balanced list of commentators, please give some indication of the aspects of the topic on which you would bring your areas of expertise to bear if you were selected as a commentator. An electronic draft of the full text is available for inspection by anonymous ftp (or gopher or world-wide-web) according to the instructions that follow after the abstract. ____________________________________________________________________ THE DETECTION AND GENERATION OF SEQUENCES AS A KEY TO CEREBELLAR FUNCTION. EXPERIMENTS AND THEORY Valentino Braitenberg, Detlef Heck and Fahad Sultan Max-Planck-Institute for biological cybernetics Spemannstr. 38 72076 Tuebingen Germany KEYWORDS: Cerebellum; motor control; allometric relation; parallel fibers; synchronicity; spatio-temporal activity; sequence addressable memory; cerebro-cerebellar interaction. ABSTRACT:Starting from macroscopic and microscopic facts of cerebellar histology, we propose a new functional interpretation which may elucidate the role of the cerebellum in movement control. Briefly, the idea is that the cerebellum is a large collection of individual lines (Eccles' "beams") which respond specifically to certain sequences of events in the input and in turn produce sequences of signals in the output. We believe that the sequence in - sequence out mode operation is as typical for the cerebellar cortex as the transformation of sets into sets of active neurons is typical for the cerebral cortex, and that both the histological differences between the two and their reciprocal functional interactions become understandable in the light of this dichotomy. The response of Purkinje cells to sequences of stimuli in the mossy fiber system was shown experimentally by Heck on surviving slices of rat and guinea pig cerebellum. Sequential activation of a row of eleven stimulating electrodes in the granular layer, imitating a "movement" of the stimuli along the folium, produces a powerful volley in the parallel fibers which strongly excites Purkinje cells, as evidenced by intracellular recording. The volley, or "tidal wave" has maximal amplitude when the stimulus moves towards the recording site at the speed of conduction in parallel fibers, and much smaller amplitudes for lower or higher "velocities". The succession of stimuli has no effect when they "move" in the opposite direction. Synchronous activation of the stimulus electrodes also had hardly any effect. We believe that the sequences of mossy fiber activation which normally produce this effect in the intact cerebellum are a combination of motor planning, relayed to the cerebellum by the cerebral cortex, and information about ongoing movement, reaching the cerebellum from the spinal cord. The output elicited by the specific sequence to which a "beam" is tuned may well be a succession of well timed inhibitory volleys "sculpting" the motor sequences so as to adapt them to the complicated requirements of the physics of a multi-jointed system. -------------------------------------------------------------- To help you decide whether you would be an appropriate commentator for this article, an electronic draft is retrievable by anonymous ftp from ftp.princeton.edu according to the instructions below (the filename is bbs.braitenberg).

Its stated purpose is to promote philosophy and psychology in the southern section of the United States by facilitating the exchange of ideas among those engaged in these fields of inquiry, by encouraging investigation, by fostering the educational function of philosophy and psychology, and by improving the academic status of these subjects. The office of President for the society alternates each year between a philosopher and a psychologist. The first president was James Mark Baldwin. His term of office ran from 1904-1907. The current president is Duane Rumbaugh of Georgia State University. There are two classes of SSPP membership members and associate members. Normally, the applicant for member status will be expected to have the Ph.D. degree and be devoting a major professional effort in a teaching or research capacity. Persons without a Ph.D. degree may be eligible for associate membership with the expectation that they can be advanced to full membership after three years of continu ed and active involvement in the teaching or research of philosophy or psychology. If you are attending the 1996 SSPP meetings and are not a member of the Society, we would welcome your application. Any of the officers listed inside the front cover of this program will be able to provide further information and an application form or you may write to the Secretary, Professor Dorothy Coleman, Department of Philosophy, College of William and Mary, P.O.

As part of the general psychology department Cognitive programs Oramegbeszeles: Izabella 46, februar 5, 17h30 209, Seminar in Philosophy of Mind (formerly titled and could still be subtitled "Intentionality and Qualia in a World of Causes") G. Fekete We shall review the development of Cognitive Science from a philosophical perspective as systematically as possible, classifying historical and current views on the subject, standard objections, paradigms, typical examples and thought experiments. I will attempt to provide the necessary tools of philosophical investigation (tools of logical analysis, terminology and methodology) for those who are unfamiliar with them, but conclusions (if any) are to be drawn together in discussions. I expect everyone to contribute to the success of the course drawing from his or her own field of expertise as the realm of cognitive science is interdisciplinary (which includes psychology, philosophy, neurobiology, computer science and arguably even quantum physics).=20 Clearly, where the questions become strictly empirical in their nature philosophy should give way to exact (or at least practical) sciences.=20 However, most issues in this field have not yet reached the stage where we are simply concerned with mapping how things actually are, rather we need to ponder how things could at all be. Such considerations properly belong to the domain of philosophy. (Of course, there are philosophical elements or aspects intrinsic to all sciences.) The interplay of the various disciplines involved and especially that of psychology, neuro-biological=20 research and philosophy will be evident and hopefully mutually fruitful (I expect to learn a lot from you) throughout the course. The intended philosophical perspective is an unambiguously materialist one. Accordingly, we shall concentrate on the possibilities of scientific reduction and the extent to which it is tenable (reductionism, eliminativism, or "integrationism"). We shall review various forms=20 of identity theories, address the problem of the semantic gap between mental and non-mental (physical) terms, and the distinction between private (first person) and public (third person) experiences. We shall meet 13 or 14 times during the semester the exact arrangement of which is subject to agreement. I propose topics formally for ten occasions (see below) leaving room to address unexpected questions that arise in the course of discussion or cope with potential delays. Each participant will be asked to make a formal contribution by introducing a specific topic for discussion at least once during the course. The first time we meet will be spent with administrative and practical matters and you will be asked to=20 read the Introduction from Fodor=92s Representations for the next occasion. 1 Historical overview: form dualism to connectivism (dualism, naturalism, psychoanalysis, behaviorism, cognitive-developmental psychology, "folk-psychology", functionalism, artificial intelligence) Readings: "Introduction" Fodor, J.A. 1981, Representations.
