Computational modeling of the olfactory receptor Olfr73 suggests a molecular basis for low potency of olfactory receptor-activating compounds

Horst Arthur Vogel, Horst Pick, Shuguang Yuan, Thamani Dahoun, Marc Brugarolas Campillos

The mammalian olfactory system uses hundreds of specialized G-protein-coupled olfactory receptors (ORs) to discriminate a nearly unlimited number of odorants. Cognate agonists of most ORs have not yet been identified and potential non-olfactory processes m ...

Subjective Evaluation of 360-degree Sensory Experiences

Pascal Frossard, Roberto Gerson De Albuquerque Azevedo

Traditionally, most multimedia content has been developed to stimulate two of the human senses, i.e., sight and hearing. Due to recent technological advancements, however, innovative services have been developed that provide more realistic, immersive, and ...

Optimal design of a squeeze film actuator for friction feedback

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Christophe Winter

Sense of touch belongs to one of the five Human Senses. Whereas blind people largely use feeling in everyday life, sighted person mainly focus on hearing and vision. However, haptic interface started being introduced in customers applications, such as smar ...

Polarization Theorems for Arbitrary DMCs

Emre Telatar, Rajai Nasser

A polarization phenomenon in a special sense is shown for an arbitrary discrete memoryless channel (DMC) by imposing a quasigroup structure on the input alphabet. The same technique is used to derive a polarization theorem for an arbitrary multiple access ...

Characterizing molecular recognition principles of specific odorant molecule interactions with an olfactory receptor and a nuclear hormone receptor

Sylvain Etter

Olfaction, the detection of odorous chemicals in the environment, is one of the oldest mammalian sensory systems and involves large number (up to 1000) of distinct G protein coupled olfactory receptors (OR). The chemical interaction of volatile molecules w ...

Differential spatial representation of taste modalities in the rat gustatory cortex

Carl Petersen, Brice Bathellier, Riccardo Accolla

Discrimination between foods is crucial for the nutrition and survival of animals. Remarkable progress has been made through molecular and genetic manipulations in the understanding of the coding of taste at the receptor level. However, much less is known ...

Visuo-motor pathways in humans revealed by event-related fMRI

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Reto Meuli

Whether different brain networks are involved in generating unimanual responses to a simple visual stimulus presented in the ipsilateral versus contralateral hemifield remains a controversial issue. Visuo-motor routing was investigated with event-related f ...
