One-to-one mapping between deep network units and real neurons uncovers a visual population code for social behavior

Abstract: The rich variety of behaviors observed in animals arises through the complex interplay between sensory processing and motor control [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. To understand these sensorimotor transformations, it is useful to build models that predict not only neural responses to sensory input [6, 7, 8, 9, 10] but also how each neuron causally contributes to behavior [11, 12]. Here we demonstrate a novel modeling approach to identify a one-to-one mapping between internal units in a deep neural network and real neurons by… Show more

“…We note, however, that how downstream circuits make use of the information available across VPNs to guide behavior is not well understood, and further work incorporating connectomics, targeted perturbations of VPN channels, and behavioral analyses might shed light on this question. For example, a recent study used genetic silencing, coupled with a goal-oriented neural network model, to show that VPNs jointly encode behaviorally relevant visual features during Drosophila courtship ( Cowley et al, 2022 ).…”

“…4b, S7). These VPNs are all looming detectors (Klapoetke et al 2022), and implicated in processing motion cues during social behavior (Cowley et al 2022). In short, our work indicates that LCs important for male courtship behavior receive information about color as well as motion and form.…”

“…On the other hand, Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) trained on datasets can perform efficiently with numerous parameters but lack interpretability. Recently, neural scientists have started constraining ANNs with real neural circuit anatomy 30,34,35 , showing that such models can converge to biological solutions and be more efficient and robust ? .…”
