The Poisson Generalized Linear Model (GLM) is a foundational tool for analyzing neural spike train data. However, standard implementations rely on discretizing spike times into binned count data, limiting temporal resolution and scalability. Here, we develop stochastic optimization methods and polyn…
Latent manifolds provide a compact characterization of neural population activity and of shared co-variability across brain areas. Nonetheless, existing statistical tools for extracting neural manifolds face limitations in terms of interpretability of latents with respect to task variables, and can…
Recent technological advances in systems neuroscience have led to a shift away from using simple tasks, with low-dimensional, well-controlled stimuli, towards trying to understand neural activity during naturalistic behavior. However, with the increase in number and complexity of task-relevant featu…
