Deep Neural Mouse Brain Modeling
This is the repository for the ongoing deep neural mouse modeling project, an attempt to characterize the representational structure of rodent visual cortex with a combination of optical and electrophysiology data from the Allen Brain Observatory and a veritable boatload of neural networks.
An accompanying Google Colab notebook (bit.ly/Neural-Cheese) contains a brief tutorial on the use of many parts of this code, including the parsing of the neurophysiology data, deep net feature extraction, and deep net modeling of the neurophysiology data.
A manuscript (recently accepted to NeurIPS2021) that uses these methods may be found here.
