Modeling Short-term Noise Dependence of Spike Counts in Macaque Prefrontal Cortex

Arno Onken, Steffen Grünewälder, Matthias H. J. Munk, Klaus Obermayer
2008 Neural Information Processing Systems  
We apply the method to our data recorded from macaque prefrontal cortex.  ...  With copulas it is possible to use arbitrary marginal distributions such as Poisson or negative binomial that are better suited for modeling noise distributions of spike counts.  ...  Applying this to our data from the macaque prefrontal cortex we found that: (1) Gaussian noise is inadequate to model spike count data for short time intervals; (2) negative binomial distributed margins  ...

Neural representation of time in cortico-basal ganglia circuits

Dezhe Z. Jin, Naotaka Fujii, Ann M. Graybiel
2009 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America  
We searched for time representations in cortico-basal ganglia circuits by recording from thousands of neurons in the prefrontal cortex and striatum of macaque monkeys performing a routine visuomotor task  ...  We found that a subset of neurons exhibited time-stamp encoding strikingly similar to that required by models of reinforcement-based learning: They responded with spike activity peaks that were distributed  ...  The presence of time-stamp coding that we found here in both the prefrontal cortex and the striatum thus supports reinforcement learning models positing cortico-basal ganglia loops with the capacity to  ...

Short-Term Memory Trace in Rapidly Adapting Synapses of Inferior Temporal Cortex

Yasuko Sugase-Miyamoto, Zheng Liu, Matthew C. Wiener, Lance M. Optican, Barry J. Richmond, Karl J. Friston

Visual short-term memory tasks depend upon both the inferior temporal cortex (ITC) and the prefrontal cortex (PFC). Activity in some neurons persists after the first (sample) stimulus is shown.  ...  Simulations of a matched filter model match the experimental results, suggesting that area TE neurons store a synaptic memory trace during short-term visual memory.  ...  To quantify the response variation (noise), the phase-and stimulus-dependent mean spike count for each neuron was subtracted from the spike count on each trial in the corresponding task phase.  ...
