Identifying Temporal Codes in Spontaneously Active Sensory Neurons
The manner in which information is encoded in neural signals is a major issue in Neuroscience. A common distinction is between rate codes, where information in neural responses is encoded as the number of spikes within a specified time frame (encoding window), and temporal codes, where the position of spikes within the encoding window carries some or all of the information about the stimulus. O...
متن کاملSensory neural codes using multiplexed temporal scales.
Determining how neuronal activity represents sensory information is central for understanding perception. Recent work shows that neural responses at different timescales can encode different stimulus attributes, resulting in a temporal multiplexing of sensory information. Multiplexing increases the encoding capacity of neural responses, enables disambiguation of stimuli that cannot be discrimin...
متن کاملCircuit topology for synchronizing neurons in spontaneously active networks.
Spike synchronization underlies information processing and storage in the brain. But how can neurons synchronize in a noisy network? By exploiting a high-speed (500-2,000 fps) multineuron imaging technique and a large-scale synapse mapping method, we directly compared spontaneous activity patterns and anatomical connectivity in hippocampal CA3 networks ex vivo. As compared to unconnected pairs,...
متن کاملIdentifying local and descending inputs for primary sensory neurons.
Primary pain and touch sensory neurons not only detect internal and external sensory stimuli, but also receive inputs from other neurons. However, the neuronal derived inputs for primary neurons have not been systematically identified. Using a monosynaptic rabies viruses-based transneuronal tracing method combined with sensory-specific Cre-drivers, we found that sensory neurons receive intragan...
متن کاملOn identifying codes in lattices
Let G(V,E) be a simple, undirected graph. An identifying code on G is a vertex-subset C ⊆ V such that B(v) ∩ C is non-empty and distinct for each vertex v ∈ V , where B(v) is a ball about v. Motivated by applications to fault diagnosis in multiprocessor arrays, a number of researchers have considered the problem of constructing identifying codes of minimum density on various two-dimensional lat...
