MR. Estimator, a toolbox to determine intrinsic timescales from subsampled spiking activity
Here we present our Python toolbox "MR. Estimator" to reliably estimate the intrinsic timescale from electrophysiologal recordings of heavily subsampled systems. Originally intended for the analysis of time series from neuronal spiking activity, our toolbox is applicable to a wide range of systems where subsampling -- the difficulty to observe the whole system in full detail -- limits our capability to record. Applications range from epidemic spreading to any system that can be represented by an autoregressive process. In the context of neuroscience, the intrinsic timescale can be thought of as the duration over which any perturbation reverberates within the network; it has been used as a key observable to investigate a functional hierarchy across the primate cortex and serves as a measure of working memory. It is also a proxy for the distance to criticality and quantifies a system's dynamic working point.

IntrinsicTimescales.jl: A Julia package to estimate intrinsic (neural) timescales (INTs) from time-series data
IntrinsicTimescales.jl is a Julia package to perform estimation of intrinsic neural timescales (INTs). INTs are defined as the time window in which prior information from an ongoing stimulus can affect the processing of …

Information processing in the brain requires integration of information over time. Such an integration can be achieved if signals are maintained in the network activity for the required period, as quantified by the intri…
Photoacoustic Reconstruction Using Sparsity in Curvelet Frame: Image versus Data Domain
Curvelet frame is of special significance for photoacoustic tomography (PAT) due to its sparsifying and microlocalisation properties. We derive a one-to-one map between wavefront directions in image and data spaces in PA…

We present $\Gamma$-nets, a method for generalizing value function estimation over timescale. By using the timescale as one of the estimator's inputs we can estimate value for arbitrary timescales. As a result, the predi…
