We explain how correlated responses in the retinal output may arise when nonlinear receptive fields are stimulated with natural scenes. We think that these concerted responses violate the decorrelation prediction of efficient coding in a cell-type-specific manner in both marmosets and mice.
Our new work with @TimGollisch and team is now out as a @biorxivpreprint!
We found that gaze shifts in natural movies drive concerted responses in populations of retinal ganglion cells. We think that these concerted responses violate the decorrelation prediction of efficient coding in a cell-type-specific manner in both marmosets and mice.
