Correction: Measuring Fisher Information Accurately in Correlated Neural Populations
Neural responses are known to be variable. In order to understand how this neural variability constrains behavioral performance, we need to be able to measure the reliability with which a sensory stimulus is encoded in a given population. However, such measures are challenging for two reasons: First, they must take into account noise correlations which can have a large influence on reliability....

متن کاملFisher and Shannon Information in Finite Neural Populations
The precision of the neural code is commonly investigated using two families of statistical measures: Shannon mutual information and derived quantities when investigating very small populations of neurons and Fisher information when studying large populations. These statistical tools are no longer the preserve of theorists and are being applied by experimental research groups in the analysis of...
متن کاملRelations between Renyi Distance and Fisher Information
In this paper, we first show that Renyi distance between any member of a parametric family and its perturbations, is proportional to its Fisher information. We, then, prove some relations between the Renyi distance of two distributions and the Fisher information of their exponentially twisted family of densities. Finally, we show that the partial ordering of families induced by Renyi dis...
متن کاملConcatenated retrieval of correlated stored information in neural networks.
We consider a coupled map lattice defined on a hypercube in M dimensions, taken here as the information space, to model memory retrieval and information association by a neural network. We assume that both neuronal activity and spike timing may carry information. In this model the state of the network at a given time t is completely determined by the intensity y(sigma,t) with which the informat...
