Abstract
While the brain’s integration of auditory and visual inputs has been extensively investigated, the mechanisms underlying somatosensory signal combination remain less explored. Here, we combine psychophysical thresholds with steady-state somatosensory evoked potentials (SSSEPs) to investigate how vibrotactile inputs are combined across fingers. We find that doubling the number of stimulated digits leads to a weak improvement in detection threshold, consistent with probability summation, whereas introducing a masking stimulus to interleaved digits induces inter-digit suppression. Correspondingly, EEG recordings reveal a ~ 1.4-fold increase in SSSEP amplitude when doubling the number of digits stimulated at the same frequency, reflecting a summation effect. In contrast, SSSEP amplitudes decrease when digits are vibrated at two different frequencies, further supporting the presence of suppression. These results are consistent with a model featuring inhibition between digits and reveal that the weight of suppression is intermediate between that observed in binocular vision and binaural hearing.

Tracing map
Proposed by the machine: these links were found in the paper and verified at the source, without human review. The map will receive a Zenodo DOI once one of the paper's authors has validated it with their ORCID.
What the map holds:
- 1 repository of the authors' code, each at its verified commit, with its license and how the link was found in the paper;
- 5 scripts, each with its path and the digest of its content;
- 6 matches between paragraphs of the paper and lines of the code (method lexical-v1);
- neither the text of the paper nor the code itself.
Its JSON (tracing-map.json) is deposited on Zenodo with its DOI once the map is validated.
