Topology of synaptic connectivity constrains neuronal stimulus representation, predicting two complementary coding strategies

Michael Reimann, Ran Levi, Christoph Pokorny

In motor-related brain regions, movement intention has been successfully decoded from invivo spike train by isolating a lower-dimension manifold that the high-dimensional spiking activity is constrained to. The mechanism enforcing this constraint remains u ...

Virtual metrology applied to milling process

Paul Arthur Adrien Pierre Dreyfus

Production quality and process efficiency are the two main drivers that lead any industrial strategy. To ensure product quality, a duality historically existed between two approaches, namely batch sampling and systematic sampling. In batch sampling, the ba ...

Influence of depositional fabric on mechanical properties of naturally deposited sands

Edward Carlo Giorgio Andò

Fabric characteristics and shear deformation behaviour were analysed in four intact small-scale samples, including two disturbed and two undisturbed samples of naturally deposited sand from a shoal in the San Francisco Bay. Triaxial compression tests were ...

Human mortality at extreme age

Anthony Christopher Davison, Léo Raymond-Belzile

We use a combination of extreme value statistics, survival analysis and computer-intensive methods to analyse the mortality of Italian and French semi-supercentenarians. After accounting for the effects of the sampling frame, extreme-value modelling leads ...

Spatial and temporal heterogeneity of methane ebullition in lowland headwater streams and the impact on sampling design

Andrew Lean Robison

Headwater streams are known sources of methane (CH4) to the atmosphere, but their contribution to global scale budgets remains poorly constrained. While efforts have been made to better understand diffusive fluxes of CH4 in streams, much less attention has ...
