Topic: Poisson observations

Identifying how brain regions work together to process inputs and generate behavior is a central goal in systems neuroscience. Recently, there has been a surge of interest in characterizing communication between brain regions and shared variability in multi-region neural recordings. In this work, we use a multi-region latent variable model (LVM) to identify computations shared-across and independent-to specific brain regions in spiking neural population data from two different animals. Here, we use a multi-region latent variable model (LVM) to identify computations shared-across and independen
