Abstract

It is an important scientific problem to analyze visual information represented by action potentials(spike) of brain neurons. Reconstruction of visual stimuli by spike signals is an important approach to solve this problem. This paper provided a method to reconstruct visual stimuli from spike signals of neurons. This experiment adopted five kinds of character images under four color backgrounds to stimulate the pigeons, and then extracted the firing rate characteristics of spike signals from the optic tectum(OT) neurons. And this experiment constructed a linear inverse filter and a random forest reconstruction model and optimized the model parameters to reconstruct characters images under different color backgrounds. And this paper analyzed the effect of background color on reconstruction results. The results show that under optimal parameter, the average reconstruction accuracy of character images in white, red, green and blue backgrounds using the linear inverse filter model is 0.9225±0.0268, 0.9027±0.0204, 0.9358±0.0235, and the average reconstruction accuracy of character images using the random forest model is 0.9499±0.0255, 0.9228±0.0303, 0.9472±0.0239, and 0.7913±0.0255. The analysis of variance shows that there is no significant difference in the image reconstruction results of white, red, and green backgrounds, but the image reconstruction results of the three colors backgrounds are significantly different from the reconstruction results of the blue background image.
