Context-independent encoding of passive and active self-motion in vestibular afferent fibers during locomotion in primates
Using experimental and computational approaches the authors show that the vestibular efferent system does not modulate peripheral coding during locomotion. Instead, vestibular afferents unambiguously convey information in a context independent manner.
