TLDR
Two subcortical structures, the cerebellum and basal ganglia, play a critical role in the timing of both movement and perception and are examined from both a neurological and a computational perspective.

Eye movements in dynamic environments

David Hoppe
TL;DR: A computational approach that quantifies the relationship between blinking behavior and environmental demands is presented, and it is shown that blinking is the result of a trade-off between task demands and the internal urge to blink in the authors' psychophysical experiment.

Timing in the Cerebellum and Cerebellar Disorders

TL;DR: The cerebellum is architecturally unique and capable of performing a redundant computation, and it has been proposed that the computation performed by the cerebellity is that of timing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-Produced Time Intervals Are Perceived as More Variable and/or Shorter Depending on Temporal Context in Subsecond and Suprasecond Ranges.

TL;DR: It is shown that self-produced time intervals were perceived as shorter and more variable across the sub- and suPRasecond ranges and within the suprasecond range but not within the subsecond range in a random context, suggesting multiple subsecond timing system for perception and motor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synchrony and Emotion

TL;DR: In this paper, the internal clock mechanism underlying the timing of rhythms is accelerated in response to the high-arousal emotions of fear and anger, suggesting that the participants tap in synchrony with external rhythms in the presence of stimuli whatever their emotional characteristics.

Stimulus-specific neuronal oscillations in orientation columns of cat visual cortex

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that local neuronal populations in the visual cortex engage in stimulus-specific synchronous oscillations resulting from an intracortical mechanism, and may provide a general mechanism by which activity patterns in spatially separate regions of the cortex are temporally coordinated.

Timing functions of the cerebellum

TL;DR: The results suggest that the domain of the cerebellar timing process is not limited to the motor system, but is employed by other perceptual and cognitive systems when temporally predictive computations are needed.

Dynamic pattern generation in behavioral and neural systems

TL;DR: The central mathematical concepts of self-organization in nonequilibrium systems are used to show how a large number of empirically observed features of temporal patterns can be mapped onto simple low-dimensional dynamical laws that are derivable from lower levels of description.
