Simple models for reading neuronal population codes ( population vector / maximum likelihood / tuning curves / perceptual learning / orientation )
In many neural systems, sensory information is distributed throughout a population of neurons. We study simple neural network models for extracting this information. The inputs to the networks are the stochastic responses of a population of sensory neurons tuned to directional stimuli. The performance of each network model in psychophysical tasks is compared with that of the optimal maximum lik...
متن کاملDistributional Population Codes and Multiple Motion Models
Most theoretical and empirical studies of population codes make the assumption that underlying neuronal activities is a unique and unambiguous value of an encoded quantity. However, population activities can contain additional information about such things as multiple values of or uncertainty about the quantity. We have previously suggested a method to recover extra information by treating the ...
متن کاملDiscriminating Natural Image Statistics from Neuronal Population Codes
The power law provides an efficient description of amplitude spectra of natural scenes. Psychophysical studies have shown that the forms of the amplitude spectra are clearly related to human visual performance, indicating that the statistical parameters in natural scenes are represented in the nervous system. However, the underlying neuronal computation that accounts for the perception of the n...
متن کاملSimple Gallager Codes for Bsc
We investigate the performance of Gallager type error-correcting codes for Binary Symmetric Channels, where the code word comprises products of K bits selected from the original message and decoding is carried out utilizing a connectivity tensor with C connections per index. Shannon's bound for the channel capacity is recovered for large K and zero temperature when the code rate K=C is nite. Cl...
متن کاملSimple stellar population models including blue stragglers
Observations show that nearly all star clusters and stellar populations contain blue straggler stars (BSs). BSs in a cluster can significantly enhance the integrated spectrum of the host population, preferentially at short wavelengths, and render it much bluer in photometric colours. Current theoretical simple stellar population (SSP) models constructed within the traditional framework of singl...
