Journal ArticleDOI

Being Critical of Criticality in the Brain

TL;DR: The concept of criticality is explained and substantial objections to the criticality hypothesis raised by skeptics are reviewed, and counter points are presented in dialog form.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synergy, redundancy, and multivariate information measures: an experimentalist's perspective

TL;DR: The usefulness of the information measures will be illustrated by analyzing neural spiking data from a dissociated culture through early stages of its development and the aim is that this work will aid other researchers as they seek the best multivariate information measure for their specific research goals and system.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Tutorial for Information Theory in Neuroscience

TL;DR: This article walks through the mathematics of information theory along with common logistical problems associated with data type, data binning, data quantity requirements, bias, and significance testing, and provides a free MATLAB software package that can be applied to a wide range of data from neuroscience experiments, as well as from other fields of study.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-Degree Neurons Feed Cortical Computations.

TL;DR: These are the first results to show that the extent to which a neuron modifies incoming information streams depends on its topological location in the surrounding functional network.
