Abstract Objective. Distributed hypothalamic-midbrain neural circuits help orchestrate complex behavioral responses during social interactions. Given rapid advances in optical imaging, it is a fundamental question how population-averaged activity measured by multi-fiber photometry (MFP) for calcium fluorescence signals correlates with behaviors question. This paper aims to investigate the correspondence between MFP data and behaviors. Approach: We propose state-space analysis framework characterize mouse based on dynamic latent variable models, which include continuous-state linear dynamical system discrete-state hidden semi-Markov model. validate these models extensive recordings aggressive mating male-male male-female interactions, respectively. Main results: Our results show that are capable of capturing both temporal structure associated states, produce interpretable states. approach also validated computer simulations presence known ground truth. Significance: Overall, approaches provide examine dynamics underlying reveals mechanistic insights into relevant networks.

Computational analysis of cellular activity has developed largely independently modern transcriptomic cell typology, but integrating these approaches may be essential for full insight into cellular-level mechanisms underlying brain function and dysfunction. Applying this approach to the habenula (a structure with diverse, intermingled molecular, anatomical, computational features), we identified encoding reward-predictive cues reward outcomes in distinct genetically defined neural populations, including TH+ cells Tac1+ cells. Data from targeted recordings were used train an optimized nonlinear dynamical systems model revealed dynamics consistent a line attractor. High-density, cell-type-specific electrophysiological optogenetic perturbation provided supporting evidence model. Reverse-engineering predicted how might integrate history, which was complemented by vivo experimentation. This integrated describes process data-driven models population can generate frame actionable hypotheses investigation biological systems.

Continuity of behaviors requires animals to make smooth transitions between mutually exclusive behavioral states. Neural principles that govern these are not well understood. Caenorhabditis elegans spontaneously switch two opposite motor states, forward and backward movement, a phenomenon thought reflect the reciprocal inhibition interneurons AVB AVA. Here, we report spontaneous locomotion their corresponding circuits separately controlled. AVA neither functionally equivalent nor strictly reciprocally inhibitory. AVA, but AVB, maintains depolarized membrane potential. While phasically inhibits promoting interneuron at fast timescale, it tonic, extrasynaptic excitation on over longer timescale. We propose with tonic phasic activity polarities different timescales, acts as master neuron break symmetry underlying circuits. This model offers parsimonious solution for sustained consisted

Animal behavior is organized into nested temporal patterns that span multiple timescales. This hierarchy believed to arise from a hierarchical neural architecture: Neurons near the top of are involved in planning, selecting, initiating, and maintaining motor programs, whereas those bottom act concert produce fine spatiotemporal activity. In Caenorhabditis elegans , on long timescale emerges ordered flexible transitions between different behavioral states, such as forward, reversal, turn. On short timescale, parts animal body coordinate fast rhythmic bending sequences directional movements. Here, we show Sublateral Anterior A (SAA), class interneurons enable cross-communication dorsal ventral head neurons, play dual role shaping dynamics SAA regulate stabilize activity during forward same neurons suppress spontaneous reversals facilitate reversal termination by inhibiting Ring Interneuron M (RIM), an integrating neuron helps maintain state. These results suggest feedback lower-level cell assembly higher-level command center essential for bridging at levels.

Abstract Sequence memory is an essential attribute of natural and artificial intelligence that enables agents to encode, store, retrieve complex sequences stimuli actions. Computational models sequence have been proposed where recurrent Hopfield-like neural networks are trained with temporally asymmetric Hebbian rules. However, these suffer from limited capacity (maximal length the stored sequence) due interference between memories. Inspired by recent work on Dense Associative Memories, we expand introducing a nonlinear interaction term, enhancing separation patterns. We derive novel scaling laws for respect network size, significantly outperforming existing based traditional Hopfield networks, verify theoretical results numerical simulation. Moreover, introduce generalized pseudoinverse rule recall highly correlated Finally, extend this model store variable timing states’ transitions describe biologically-plausible implementation, connections motor neuroscience.
