The Neural Coding and Bayesian Methods Journal Club.
(NCBM)
The Neural Coding and Bayesian Methods Journal Club is a discussion group with meetings held weekly. The group focuses on neural coding, Bayesian and information theoretic approaches to neuroscience problems, attention, and perceptual learning. Meetings are organised by
Peggy Series, and are generally held on
Mondays at 5pm in room 1.16 in the Informatics Forum unless noted otherwise.

- 12 Oct 2009 David Reichert: "Beyond V1... Here Be Objects!". I would like to discuss some background motivation for what I'm trying to do in my PhD, and in a sense it's related to Jim's talk on Tuesday, hence the title. I'm going to give a rather broad presentation, but to get an idea I suggest reading the following paper (only 2 pages!): http://www.cell.com/current-biology/retrieve/pii/S0960982209006824 Current Biology, 2009, 19(7);300-2
