On directed information theory and Granger causality graphs [PDF]
J. Comput. Neurosci. (2010), 30:7-16, 2010 Directed information theory deals with communication channels with feedback. When applied to networks, a natural extension based on causal conditioning is needed. We show here that measures built from directed information theory in networks can be used to assess Granger causality graphs of stochastic processes.

An Introductory Review of Information Theory in the Context of Computational Neuroscience [PDF]
Biological Cybernetics, 105(1), 1-16, 2011, 2011 This paper introduces several fundamental concepts in information theory from the perspective of their origins in engineering. Understanding such concepts is important in neuroscience for two reasons. Simply applying formulae from information theory without understanding the assumptions behind their definitions can lead to erroneous results and ...

A perspective on neuroscience data standardization with Neurodata Without Borders [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Neuroscience research has evolved to generate increasingly large and complex experimental data sets, and advanced data science tools are taking on central roles in neuroscience research. Neurodata Without Borders (NWB), a standard language for neurophysiology data, has recently emerged as a powerful solution for data management, analysis, and sharing ...

An introduction to reinforcement learning for neuroscience [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Reinforcement learning (RL) has a rich history in neuroscience, from early work on dopamine as a reward prediction error signal (Schultz et al., 1997) to recent work proposing that the brain could implement a form of 'distributional reinforcement learning' popularized in machine learning (Dabney et al., 2020).

What can a mathematician do in neuroscience? [PDF]
Mathematica Applicanda 40, 27-37 (2012), 2014 Mammalian brain is one of the most complex objects in the known universe, as it governs every aspect of animal's and human behavior. It is fair to say that we have a very limited knowledge of how the brain operates and functions. Computational Neuroscience is a scientific discipline that attempts to understand and describe the brain in terms of ...
