Abstract:Recent studies show that, even in constant environments, the tuning of single neurons changes over time in a variety of brain regions. This representational drift has been suggested to be a consequence of continuous learning under noise, but its properties are still not fully understood. To uncover the underlying mechanism, we trained an artificial network to perform a predictive coding task. After the loss converged, the activity slowly became sparser. We verified the generality of this phenomenon across mode… Show more
