متن کاملRepresentational capacity of face coding in monkeys.
We examine the distributed nature of the neural code for faces represented by the firing of visual neurons in the superior temporal sulcus of monkeys. Both information theory and neural decoding techniques are applied to determine how the capacity to represent faces depends on the number of coding neurons. Using a combination of experimental data and Monte Carlo simulations, we show that the in...
