Primacy coding facilitates effective odor discrimination when receptor sensitivities are tuned

The olfactory system faces the difficult task of identifying an enormous variety of odors independent of their intensity. Primacy coding, where the odor identity is encoded by the receptor types that respond earliest, might provide a compact and informative representation that can be interpreted eff...
