Dependence of source encoding accuracy on constants. Left panels show the magnitudes of the correlations between sources and responses of a neuron expected to encode source 1: and . The right panels show the magnitudes of the correlations between sources and responses of a neuron expected to encode source 2: and . (A) Dependence on the constant that controls the excitability of a neuron when is fixed to zero. The dashed line (0.5) indicates the optimal value of . (B) Dependence on constant when is fixed as . Elements of were randomly generated from a gaussian distribution with zero mean. The standard deviation of was varied (horizontal axis), where zero deviation was optimal. Lines and shaded areas indicate the mean and standard deviation of the source-response correlation, evaluated with 50 different sequences.
