- We present our preprint on ViV1T, a transformer for dynamic mouse V1 response prediction. We reveal novel response properties and confirm them in vivo. With @wulfdewolf.bsky.social, Danai Katsanevaki, @arnoonken.bsky.social, @rochefortlab.bsky.social. Paper and code at the end of the thread! 🧵1/7
- ViV1T, only trained on natural movies, captured well-known direction tuning and contextual modulation of V1. Despite no built-in mechanism for modelling neuron connectivities, the model predicted feedback-dependent contextual modulation (including feedback onset delay!) (Keller et al. 2020). 2/7

- Reposted by Bryan M. LiExcited to share our new pre-print on bioRxiv, in which we reveal that feedback-driven motor corrections are encoded in small, previously missed neural signals.
