This dataset is composed of eight bilateral silicon-probe multi-cellular electrophysiological recordings performed on four male Long-Evans rats. These recordings were performed to assess the effect of novel spatial learning on hippocampal CA1 neural firing and LFP patterns in naïve animals. Each session consisted of a long (~4 hour) PRE rest/sleep epoch home-cage recordings performed in a familiar...

The data set contains recordings made from multiple anterior thalamic nuclei, mainly the antero-dorsal (AD) nucleus, and subicular areas, mainly the post-subiculum (PoS), in freely moving mice. Thalamic and subicular electrodes yielding high number of the so-called Head-Direction (HD) cells were likely to be located in the AD nucleus and the PoS, respectively. Electrode placement was confirmed by histology....

The data set contains multichannel simultaneous recordings made from layer CA1 of the right dorsal hippocampus of three Long-Evans rats during open field tasks in which the animals chased randomly placed drops of water or pieces of Froot Loops while on an elevated square platform. In order to examine the temporal relationships between theta oscillations and the coordination of neuronal firing in the...

This dataset contains recordings made using a silicon probe from three areas from a single rat that was performing different behavioral tasks. The three regions recorded from are left and right hippocampal CA1 and right entorhinal cortex. The tasks are a left/right alternate selection task, wheel running, and platform exploration. The neural data was recorded on 125 channels. In the study, five...

This data contains recordings from the rat frontal cortex (brain regions mPFC, OFC, ACC, and M2) during wake-sleep episodes where at least 7 minutes of wakefulness are followed by 20 minutes of sleep. The data was recorded using silicon probe electrodes in the frontal cortices of male Long Evans rats between 4-7 months of age during no specific behavior, task or stimulus. The animal was left alone...

This dataset includes 3D scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of a female mouse corpus callosum and MATLAB code for random walker (RaW) segmentations of myelinated axons. The code additionally characterizes inner axonal diameters and fiber orientation dispersion within segments of the intra-axonal spaces and myelin sheaths. In the study, a female 8-week-old C57BL/6 mouse was perfused trans-cardiacally...

This dataset contains behavioral data assessing the sensitivity of five human subjects (one female and four male) to higher-order moments of motion as applied to random dot kinematograms. The dots were manipulated by probability distributions that systematically differed in their mean, variance, skewness, or kurtosis. Following training sessions where they reached at least 80% accuracy, subjects were...

This dataset assesses the influence of timescale on the processing of visual stimuli. Following training sessions where they reached at least 76% accuracy, five human subjects (four male and one female) were presented with the following task: brief samples of a contrast pattern were presented on screen for 200 ms, followed by a pause before the subjects were prompted to match the samples to one of...

This data collection includes neural recordings obtained from the visual cortex (V1 and V2) and prearcurate gyrus (8Ar) of macaque monkeys (Macaca nemestrina and Macaca mulatta) during a direction discrimination task and code for replicating the modeling of neural representations. 96-channel microelectrode Utah arrays were implanted across the border of the V1 and V2 visual cortices of Macaca nemestrina....

This dataset presented results from psychophysics and modeling that supports the use of image statistics heuristics in the judgement of metallicity. To investigate visual features associated with the interpretation of metallic objects, five practiced participants (aged 23 to 28 years old) with normal color vision and normal or corrected-to-normal visual acuity were recruited to perform a conjoint-measurement...
