Abstract:The highly variable spiking of a cortical neuron is "coupled" to that of other neurons in the network. This has implications for sensory coding, and appears to represent a fundamental property of cortical sensory processing. To date, most studies of population coupling have focused on recorded spiking activity, an approach that suffers from several confounding issues.Moreover, the contributions of various network properties to population coupling are largely unexplored. To this end, we recorded the membrane po… Show more
