Computation Through Neural Population Dynamics
the Turing Machine
10.1146@annurev-neuro-092619-094115.pdf
Significant experimental, computational, and theoretical work has identified rich structure within the coordinated activity of interconnected neural pop- ulations. An emerging challenge now is to uncover the nature of the asso- ciated computations, how they are implemented, and what role they play in driving behavior. We term this computation through neural population dy- namics. If successful, this framework will reveal general motifs of neural pop- ulation activity and quantitatively describe how neural population dynamics implement computations necessary for driving goal-directed behavior. Here, we start with a mathematical primer on dynamical systems theory and ana- lytical tools necessary to apply this perspective to experimental data. Next, we highlight some recent discoveries resulting from successful application of dynamical systems. We focus on studies spanning motor control, timing, decision-making, and working memory. Finally, we briefly discuss promis- ing recent lines of investigation and future directions for the computation through neural population dynamics framework.
