An odor is not worth a thousand words: from multidimensional odors to unidimensional odor objects

Y Yeshurun, N Sobel - Annual review of psychology, 2010 - annualreviews.org
Olfaction is often referred to as a multidimensional sense. It is multidimensional in that∼
1000 different receptor types, each tuned to particular odor aspects, together contribute to …
