Superlinear Precision and Memory in Simple Population Codes
Jimmy H. J. Kim, Ila Fiete, David J. Schwab
The brain constructs population codes to represent stimuli through widely distributed patterns of activity across neurons. An important figure of merit of population codes is how m…
The deterministic information bottleneck
DJ Strouse, David J Schwab
Lossy compression and clustering fundamentally involve a decision about what features are relevant and which are not. The information bottleneck method (IB) by Tishby, Pereira, and…
A binary Hopfield network with information rate and applications to grid cell decoding
Ila Fiete, David J. Schwab, Ngoc M. Tran
A Hopfield network is an auto-associative, distributive model of neural memory storage and retrieval. A form of error-correcting code, the Hopfield network can learn a set of patte…
Zipf's law and criticality in multivariate data without fine-tuning
David J. Schwab, Ilya Nemenman, Pankaj Mehta
The joint probability distribution of many degrees of freedom in biological systems, such as firing patterns in neural networks or antibody sequence composition in zebrafish, often…
Rhythmogenic neuronal networks, pacemakers, and k-cores
David J. Schwab, Robijn F. Bruinsma, Alex J. Levine
Neuronal networks are controlled by a combination of the dynamics of individual neurons and the connectivity of the network that links them together. We study a minimal model of th…
