Before revision:  To model such a behavior, Edelman and Damasio proposed respectively the Reentry and the Convergence Divergence Zone frameworks where bi-directional neural communications can lead to both multimodal fusion (convergence) and inter-modal activation (divergence). ...
After revision:  In spite of the diversity of the sensory modalities, like sight, sound and touch, the brain arrives at the same concepts (convergence) and inter-modal activation (divergence). ...
