POPULATION ADAPTATION IN EFFICIENT BALANCED NETWORKS

Population adaptation in efficient balanced networks

Adaptation is a key component of efficient coding in sensory neurons.However, it remains unclear how neurons can provide a stable representation of external stimuli given their history-dependent responses.Here we show that a stable representation is maintained if efficiency is optimized by a population of neurons rather than by neurons individually
