Optimal encoding of interval timing in expert percussionists
2011
We measured temporal reproduction in expert drummers, string-musicians and non-musical subjects. While duration reproduction of the controls showed a characteristic regression to the mean, drummers responded veridically. This behavior is well explained by a model that combines optimally the sensory estimate for duration (more precise in drummers) with a prior, given by the average of the past few trials. These results highlight the efficiency and adaptability of sensori-motor mechanisms estimating temporal duration.
