title: [A model of the relation of tonotopy and synchronization in the auditory system].
abstract: Tonotopy and synchronization of spike discharges with the stimulus frequency are two modes of coding which are probably not independent. After defining an appropriate process of coding and a measure of temporal correlations between two neighbouring channels, we show that it is possible to build with these two fundamental features of the auditory system, a neurophysiologically plausible neural network which has properties of noise resistance and signal segmentation.
