Sparse spike trains and the limitations of rate codes underlying rapid behaviour

Joseph Mahandas Fabian, David C. O’Carroll, Steven D. Wiederman

The paper examines the limitations of rate codes in controlling rapid behaviors by comparing post-hoc neural activity analysis with real-time information availability.

Modelling nonlinear dendritic processing of facilitation in a dragonfly target-tracking neuron

Bo M. B. Bekkouche, Patrick A. Shoemaker, Joseph Mahandas Fabian, Elisa Rigosi, Steven D. Wiederman, David C. O’Carroll

The paper develops a hybrid neuronal model of dragonfly STMD neurons to test how dendritic morphology and NMDA receptor nonlinearities contribute to facilitation during target tracking.

Differential adaptation to visual motion allows robust encoding of optic flow in the dragonfly

Bernard J. E. Evans, David C. O’Carroll, Joseph Mahandas Fabian, Steven D. Wiederman

The paper identifies three subclasses of wide-field motion-sensitive neurons in dragonflies, differing in motion adaptation and response to natural images, which supports their complex flight behaviors.

Target-detecting neurons in the dragonfly lock on to selectively attended targets

Benjamin H. Lancer, Bernard J. E. Evans, Joseph Mahandas Fabian, David C. O’Carroll, Steven D. Wiederman

The paper identifies a dragonfly neuron that selectively attends to targets using frequency-tagging, showing complex attention mechanisms beyond simple winner-takes-all models.

Properties of Predictive Gain Modulation in a Dragonfly Visual Neuron

Joseph Mahandas Fabian, James R. Dunbier, David C. O’Carroll, Steven D. Wiederman

This paper investigates predictive gain modulation in dragonfly visual neurons, showing it depends on both past and present stimulus parameters and reduces response variability.
