a, Detection threshold α was determined by tuning the model with neural responses to single whisker deflections. b, The threshold that achieved the highest similarity index between modeled (red) and scaled animal (blue) single pulse detection performance was used for further analysis. As a result model achieved higher absolute detection performance as the animals (green) but sensitivity to single deflections, defined by the inflection curve of the tuning curves (M50), was highly comparable.
