Does electro-sensing fish use the first order polarization tensor for object characterization? object discrimination test

This paper extends the previous works to further explore the role of the first order polarization tensor in electro-sensing by the weakly electric fish specifically for object discrimination and characterization. The first order polarization tensor for few objects used in the considered experiment a...
