The Ecology of Animal Senses Matched Filters for Economical Sensing /
Sensory systems have evolved to deal with complex and seemingly infinite sensory information. However, during evolution the morphology and neural circuitry of sensory organs have become "matched filters" for the characteristics of the most ecologically crucial stimuli that need to be detec...
