Beyond the attractor: closed-loop stimulation design for learning multistable neural dynamics

This paper introduces PALDI, a method for active closed-loop stimulation to identify neural dynamics, showing improved performance in noisy and biased observation scenarios.

Bayesian Efficient Coding

Letting sensory codes optimize any posterior-based loss makes information maximization (infomax) one special case; blowfly large monopolar cell responses match p = 1/2 Lp reconstruction-error codes better than infomax.

Sensory and choice responses in MT distinct from motion encoding

This study shows that MT area in macaques has task-related cognitive contributions distinct from motion encoding and decoding for direction discrimination.

Stimulus-choice (mis)alignment in primate MT cortex

The paper analyzes neural activity in primate MT cortex during perceptual decision-making and finds that choice-related signals are misaligned with stimulus encoding, suggesting feedback from downstream areas.

Myopic control of neural dynamics

The paper introduces a myopic control method for neural dynamics that adapts to current states without pre-calculating complex trajectories, demonstrating its utility in cognitive and motor system applications.

Organization of Neural Population Code in Mouse Visual System

The paper analyzes neural activity in mouse visual areas to determine how different cell types and layers encode visual stimuli, finding that superficial layers and specific areas show higher stimulus-specific decodability.
