Neural Codes & Distributed Rep Foundations of Neural Computation

Since its founding in 1989 by Terrence Sejnowski, Neural Computation hasbecome the leading journal in the field. Foundations of Neural Computationscollects, by topic, the most significant papers that have appeared in the journalover the past nine years.The present volume focuses on neural codes andrepresentations, topics of broad interest to neuroscientists and modelers. Thetopics addressed are: how neurons encode information through action potential firingpatterns, how populations of neurons represent information, and how individualneurons use dendritic processing and biophysical properties of synapses to decodespike trains. The papers encompass a wide range of levels of investigation, fromdendrites and neurons to networks and systems.
