Neural correlations, population coding and computation

BB Averbeck, PE Latham, A Pouget - Nature reviews neuroscience, 2006 - nature.com
How the brain encodes information in population activity, and how it combines and manipulates
that activity as it carries out computations, are questions that lie at the heart of systems …

Learning and production of movement sequences: Behavioral, neurophysiological, and modeling perspectives

BJ Rhodes, D Bullock, WB Verwey, BB Averbeck… - Human movement …, 2004 - Elsevier
A wave of recent behavioral studies has generated a new wealth of parametric observations
about serial order behavior. What was a trickle of neurophysiological studies has grown to a …

Reinforcement learning in artificial and biological systems

EO Neftci, BB Averbeck - Nature Machine Intelligence, 2019 - nature.com
There is and has been a fruitful flow of concepts and ideas between studies of learning in
