Finally up on bioRxiv! A new study with @jdrugowitsch.bsky.social where we do a deep dive into the coding benefits of receptive field heterogeneity and come up with new ways to measure receptive fields! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... [1/n]
A unifying theory of receptive field heterogeneity predicts hippocampal spatial tuning
Neural populations exhibit receptive fields that vary in their sizes and shapes. Despite the prevalence of such tuning heterogeneity, we lack a unified theory of its computational benefits. Here, we p...
