Scaling principles of distributed circuits

The paper investigates the scalability of distributed circuits, finding the olfactory circuit meets three criteria of scalability across six mammals.

A neural algorithm for a fundamental computing problem

The paper describes how the fly's olfactory circuit solves a similarity search problem using a novel algorithm inspired by locality-sensitive hashing, improving performance on benchmark datasets.

A quantitative description of the mouse piriform cortex

The paper provides volumetric estimates and neuronal density calculations for the mouse piriform cortex, showing it contains around half a million neurons equally distributed between anterior and posterior regions.
