    Title: POSSM: Generalizable, real-time neural decoding with hybrid state-space models Abstract:  Real-time decoding of neural spiking data is a core aspect of neurotechnology applications such as brain-computer interfaces, where models are subject to strict latency constraints. Traditional methods, including simple recurrent neural networks, are fast and lightweight but are less equipped for generalization to unseen…

    Title: Brain-like learning with exponentiated gradients Abstract: Computational neuroscience relies on gradient descent (GD) for training artificial neural network (ANN) models of the brain. The advantage of GD is that it is effective at learning difficult tasks. However, it produces ANNs that are a poor phenomenological fit to biology, making them less relevant as models…

    Title: Neural circuit mechanisms of value-based decision-making Abstract:  The value of the environment determines animals’ motivational states and sets expectations for error-based learning. But how are values computed? We developed…

    Title: Fast and Flexible Group Decision-Making Abstract: A wide range of animals live and move in groups. Many animals do better in groups than alone when, for example, foraging for…
