  1. Systematic reduction of the dimensionality of natural scenes allows accurate predictions of retinal ganglion cell spike outputs

    Publication

  2. Conserved circuits for direction selectivity in the primate retina

    Publication
    The detection of motion direction is a fundamental visual function and a classic model for neural computation. In the non-primate retina, direction selectivity arises in starburst amacrine …

  3. Predictive encoding of motion begins in the primate retina

    Publication
    Predictive motion encoding is an important aspect of visually guided behavior that allows animals to estimate the trajectory of moving objects. Motion prediction is understood primarily in the …

  4. Predictive encoding of motion begins in the primate retina

    Publication
    Predictive motion encoding is an important aspect of visually guided behavior that allows animals to estimate the trajectory of moving objects. Motion prediction is understood primarily in the …

  5. Identification of Multiple Noise Sources Improves Estimation of Neural Responses across Stimulus Conditions

    Publication
    Most models of neural responses are constructed to reproduce the average response to inputs but lack the flexibility to capture observed variability in responses. The origins and structure …

  6. Identification of multiple noise sources improves estimation of neural responses across stimulus conditions

  7. The Geometry of Information Coding in Correlated Neural Populations

    Publication
    Neurons in the brain represent information in their collective activity. The fidelity of this neural population code depends on whether and how variability in the response of one …

  8. Nonlinear convergence boosts information coding in circuits with parallel outputs

    Publication
    Neural circuits are structured with layers of converging and diverging connectivity and selectivity-inducing nonlinearities at neurons and synapses. These components have the potential to hamper an accurate …

  9. Stimulus- and goal-oriented frameworks for understanding natural vision.

    Publication
    Our knowledge of sensory processing has advanced dramatically in the last few decades, but this understanding remains far from complete, especially for stimuli with the large dynamic range …

  10. Predicting how and when hidden neurons skew measured synaptic interactions.

    Publication
    A major obstacle to understanding neural coding and computation is the fact that experimental recordings typically sample only a small fraction of the neurons in a circuit. Measured …

  11. Range, routing and kinetics of rod signaling in primate retina

    Publication
    Stimulus- or context-dependent routing of neural signals through parallel pathways can permit flexible processing of diverse inputs. For example, work in mouse shows that rod photoreceptor signals …

  12. Receptive field center-surround interactions mediate context-dependent spatial contrast encoding in the retina.

    Publication
    Antagonistic receptive field surrounds are a near-universal property of early sensory processing. A key assumption in many models for retinal ganglion cell encoding is that receptive field …

  13. Parallel Processing of Rod and Cone Signals: Retinal Function and Human Perception.

    Publication
    We know a good deal about the operation of the retina when either rod or cone photoreceptors provide the dominant input (i.e., under very dim or very …
