“…Because of its general applicability, information theory, in particular, has been widely used in neuroscience [812] , [813] , [814] , [815] , [816] , [817] . For instance, these sorts of mathematical tools have extensively used for analyzing data from electroencephalography (EEG), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) [818] , [819] , [820] . These analyses, in turn, quantifies phenomena like encoding (e.g., how much information a neuron provides [821] , [822] ), complex encoding relationships [823] , [824] , [825] , [817] , studies of neural connectivity [826] , [827] , [828] , [829] and sensory encoding [821] , [830] , [831] , [832] .…”
