PMID-14511525 Probing changes in neural interaction during adaptation.
- looking at the changes in te connectivity between cells during/after motor learning.
- convert sparse spike trains to continuous firing rates, use these as input to granger causality test
- used the Dawn Taylor monkey task, except with push-buttons.
- perterbed the monkey's reach trajectory with a string to a pneumatic cylinder.
- their data looks pretty random. 9-17 neurons recorded. learning generally involves increases in interaction.
- sponsored by DARPA
- not a very good paper, alas.
