Development of a sensor system inspired by electroreceptors of paddlefish

我们提出了一个传感器系统的灵感来自小鼠的味蕾和白鲟的电受体。在本传感器系统中，输入信号的强度和身份被编码成输出频率和一对输出神经元之间的同步程度。传感器系统的结构是基于小鼠味蕾中的细胞到细胞网络。此外，我们还建立了小鼠味蕾细胞的计算模型。同时揭示了玻璃鲶鱼在弱电场中的回避行为。

We proposed a sensor system inspired by mouse taste buds and electroreceptors of paddlefish. In the present sensor system, the strength and identity of input signals were encoded into the output frequency and degree of synchronization between a pair of output neurons. The structure of the sensor system was based on a cell-to-cell network in the mouse taste buds. Further, we made a computational model of the mouse taste bud cells. The avoidance behavior of glass catfish in the weak electric fieldwas also revealed.
