The document discusses the sensorimotor vocal learning in songbirds, focusing on the correspondence between vocal-motor output and auditory feedback. It highlights the neuronal activity in the motor cortex analog of adult zebra finches, showing that the timing and structure of activity during song playback in sleep matches daytime singing. The study suggests that sensorimotor correspondences are stored during singing and used to adaptively shape motor output during sleep. The research also explores reinforcement learning in biological systems, particularly in the context of vocal learning in birds.
