Abstract Information theory has long been used to quantify interactions between two
variables. With the rise of complex systems research, multivariate information measures …

Several neural codes have been proposed in order to explain how neurons encode sensory
information. Here we tested the hypothesis that different codes might be employed …

The brain is an intricate network with complex organizational principles facilitating a
concerted communication between single-neurons, distinct neuron populations, and remote …

A fundamental claim associated with parallel distributed processing (PDP) theories of
cognition is that knowledge is coded in a distributed manner in mind and brain. This …

Cortical representations supporting many cognitive abilities emerge from underlying circuits
comprised of several different cell types. However, cell type-specific contributions to rate and …

Combining information across different sensory modalities can greatly facilitate our ability to
detect, discriminate, or recognize sensory stimuli [1, 2]. Although this process of sensory …

Neural activity in the cerebral cortex can explain many aspects of sensory perception.
Extensive psychophysical and neurophysiological studies of visual motion and vibrotactile …

The categorization of animal vocalizations into distinct behaviorally relevant groups for
communication is an essential operation that must be performed by the auditory system. This …

Understanding how communication sounds are processed and encoded in the central
auditory system is critical to understanding the neural bases of acoustic communication …

An important question in sensory neuroscience is what coding strategies and mechanisms
are used by the brain to detect and discriminate among behaviorally relevant stimuli. There …
