Optogenetic stimulation has opened up a new avenue to probe neuronal circuitry at high spatiotemporal resolutions. A key challenge in optogenetic stimulation is deciding which subset out of thousands of neurons should be stimulated to elicit a desired network activation or affect behavior. In this w…
Coordinated ensemble spiking activity is widely observable in neural recordings and central in the study of population codes, with hypothesized roles including robust stimulus representation, interareal communication of neural information, and learning and memory formation. Model-free measures of sy…
We consider the problem of estimating the power spectral density of the neural covariates underlying the spiking of a neuronal population. We assume the spiking of the neuronal ensemble to be described by Bernoulli statistics. Furthermore, we consider the conditional intensity function to be the log…
