Abstract: The responses of cortical sensory neurons are notoriously variable, with
the number of spikes evoked by identical stimuli varying significantly
from trial to trial. This variability is most often interpreted as `noise',
purely detrimental to the sensory system. In this paper, we propose an alternative
view in which the variability is related to the uncertainty, about
world parameters, which is inherent in the sensory stimulus. Specifically,
the responses of a population of neurons are... (Update)
