Approximations of Shannon Mutual Information for Discrete Variables with Applications to Neural Population Coding
Wentao Huang, Kechen Zhang
Although Shannon mutual information has been widely used, its effective calculation is often difficult for many practical problems, including those in neural population coding. Asy…

Information-theoretic interpretation of tuning curves for multiple motion directions
Wentao Huang, Xin Huang, Kechen Zhang
We have developed an efficient information-maximization method for computing the optimal shapes of tuning curves of sensory neurons by optimizing the parameters of the underlying f…
