Neural coding: Foundational concepts, statistical formulations, and recent advances

Le résumé fourni par la source

Neural coding refers to the processes by which external stimuli are translated into neural activity and represented in a manner that drives behavior. Research in this field aims to elucidate these processes by identifying the neural activity and mechanisms responsible for stimulus recognition and behavioral execution. This article provides a concise review of foundational studies and key concepts in neural coding, along with statistical formulations and recent advances in population coding research enabled by large-scale recordings. • Neural coding studies explore how information is transmitted in the nervous system. • Encoding and decoding methods clarify how neurons represent stimuli and behavior. • Advances in large-scale recordings reveal coding capacity of neural populations.
