Grid Cell Hexagonal Patterns Formed by Fast Self-Organized Learning within Entorhinal Cortex [PDF]
Grid cells in the dorsal segment of the medial entorhinal cortex (dMEC) show remarkable hexagonal activity patterns, at multiple spatial scales, during spatial navigation. How these hexagonal patterns arise has excited intense interest. It has previously

Optimal Population Codes for Space: Grid Cells Outperform Place Cells [PDF]
Rodents use two distinct neuronal coordinate systems to estimate their position: place fields in the hippocampus and grid fields in the entorhinal cortex.

Does Optic Flow Explain the Firing of Grid Cells? [PDF]
*Problem.* Various cues such as vestibular, sensorimotor, or visual information can lead to the firing of grid cells recorded in entorhinal cortex of rats.

Using 3D Voronoi grids in radiative transfer simulations [PDF]
Probing the structure of complex astrophysical objects requires effective three-dimensional (3D) numerical simulation of the relevant radiative transfer (RT) processes. As with any numerical simulation code, the choice of an appropriate discretization is

Hierarchical octree and k-d tree grids for 3D radiative transfer simulations [PDF]
A crucial ingredient for numerically solving the 3D radiative transfer problem is the choice of the grid that discretizes the transfer medium. Many modern radiative transfer codes, whether using Monte Carlo or ray tracing techniques, are equipped with ...

Correlations and functional connections in a population of grid cells [PDF]
We study the statistics of spike trains of simultaneously recorded grid cells in freely behaving rats. We evaluate pairwise correlations between these cells and, using a generalized linear model (kinetic Ising model), study their functional connectivity.

An oscillatory interference model of grid cell firing [PDF]
We expand upon our proposal that the oscillatory interference mechanism proposed for the phase precession effect in place cells underlies the grid-like firing pattern of dorsomedial entorhinal grid cells (O'Keefe and Burgess (2005) Hippocampus 15:853-866)

Scaling gridded river networks for macroscale hydrology: Development, analysis, and control of error [PDF]
A simple and robust river network scaling algorithm (NSA) is presented to rescale fine‐resolution networks to any coarser resolution. The algorithm was tested over the Danube River basin and the European continent.

Modeling large scale species abundance with latent spatial processes [PDF]
Modeling species abundance patterns using local environmental features is an important, current problem in ecology. The Cape Floristic Region (CFR) in South Africa is a global hot spot of diversity and endemism, and provides a rich class of species ...

Replay as wavefronts and theta sequences as bump oscillations in a grid cell attractor network. [PDF]
Grid cells fire in sequences that represent rapid trajectories in space. During locomotion, theta sequences encode sweeps in position starting slightly behind the animal and ending ahead of it. During quiescence and slow wave sleep, bouts of synchronized
