Simultaneous recordings from large neural populations are becoming increasingly common.
An important feature of population activity is the trial-to-trial correlated fluctuation of spike …

Coordinated functioning of the two cortical hemispheres is crucial for perception. The human
auditory cortex (ACx) shows functional lateralization with the left hemisphere specialized for …

Cortical networks exhibit intrinsic dynamics that drive coordinated, large-scale fluctuations
across neuronal populations and create noise correlations that impact sensory coding. To …

Understanding how neural populations encode sensory stimuli remains a central problem in
neuroscience. Here we performed multi-unit recordings from sensory neural populations in …

The principles of neural encoding and computations are inherently collective and usually
involve large populations of interacting neurons with highly correlated activities. While …

Neuronal activity correlations are key to understanding how populations of neurons
collectively encode information. While two-photon calcium imaging has created a unique …

How the activities of large neural populations are integrated in the brain to ensure accurate
perception and behavior remains a central problem in systems neuroscience. Here, we …

A randomly connected network is constructed with similar characteristics (eg, the ratio of
excitatory and inhibitory neurons, the connection probability between neurons, and the …

Correlations in sensory neural networks have both extrinsic and intrinsic origins. Extrinsic or
stimulus correlations arise from shared inputs to the network and, thus, depend strongly on …

Signal correlation (rs) is commonly defined as the correlation between the tuning curves of
two neurons and is widely used as a metric of tuning similarity. It is fundamental to how …
