Theoretical analysis of pre-receptor image conditioning in weakly electric fish.
Electroreceptive fish detect nearby objects by processing the information contained in the pattern of electric currents through the skin. The distribution of local transepidermal voltage or current density on the sensory surface of the fish's skin is the electric image of the surrounding enviro...
