Negative Correlation In Neural Systems(实用的RIKEN紧凑型中子源和XJTU-RIKEN合作)

Introduction: In our attempt to understand neural systems, it is useful to identify statistical principles that may be beneficial in neural information processing, outline how these principles may work in theory, and demonstrate the benefits through computational modelling and simulation. Negative correlation is one such principle, and is the subject of this work. The main body of the work falls into three parts. The first part demonstrates the space filling and accelerated central limit convergence benefits of negative correlation, both generally and in the specific neural context of V1 receptive fields. I outline two new algorithms combining traditional ICA with a correlation objective function.
