  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 Male songbirds learn their mating vocal display, the song, through auditory feedback. This leaning is mainly processed by the basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical loop. Recently, it is shown that the loop is consisted of several closed sub-loops and that each of loops projects topographically. In this review, we introduce several models for song learning that are anatomically and neurophysiologically inspired. We then propose a new model for avian song learning. In the first phase of the sensorimotor learning every loop learns song note, motor unit of production, and the process would be mediated thorough reinforcement learning. In the second phase motor commands obtained in the premotor area are re-learned in a higher motor cortex by taking advantage of the time stamps of auditory feedback. Through this process, the motor responsible site shifts to a higher order area and older area begin to handle an efference copy of the motor commands. By this model we can consolidate conflicting views of past studies.
