Asymmetric retinal direction tuning predicts optokinetic eye movements across stimulus conditions

TL;DR: In this article , the authors demonstrate that motion encoding in vertically-tuned oDSGCs is contrast-sensitive and asymmetric for ODSGC types that prefer opposite directions.

New insights into retinal circuits through EM connectomics: what we have learnt and what remains to be learned

TL;DR: The retinal neural circuit is intricately wired for efficient processing of visual signals and is well-supported by the specialized connections between retinal neurons at both the functional and ultrastructural levels as mentioned in this paper .

Emerging computational motifs: Lessons from the retina

TL;DR: A review of recent advances in the understanding of direction selectivity circuits in the retina can be found in this article , where it is shown that the retina utilizes complicated and sophisticated mechanisms in which excitatory and inhibitory pathways are involved in the efficient encoding of motion information.

Model-Based Clustering, Discriminant Analysis, and Density Estimation

TL;DR: This work reviews a general methodology for model-based clustering that provides a principled statistical approach to important practical questions that arise in cluster analysis, such as how many clusters are there, which clustering method should be used, and how should outliers be handled.

Sparse Principal Component Analysis

TL;DR: This work introduces a new method called sparse principal component analysis (SPCA) using the lasso (elastic net) to produce modified principal components with sparse loadings and shows that PCA can be formulated as a regression-type optimization problem.

Connectomic reconstruction of the inner plexiform layer in the mouse retina

TL;DR: Circuit motifs that emerge from the data indicate a functional mechanism for a known cellular response in a ganglion cell that detects localized motion, and predict that another ganglions cell is motion sensitive.

An optimized fluorescent probe for visualizing glutamate neurotransmission

TL;DR: An intensity-based glutamate-sensing fluorescent reporter with signal-to-noise ratio and kinetics appropriate for in vivo imaging is described and its utility for visualizing glutamate release by neurons and astrocytes in increasingly intact neurological systems is validated.
