The effects of pooling on correlated neural variability

Neurons integrate inputs from thousands of afferents.Similarly, some experimental techniques record the pooled activity of large populations of cells.When cells in these populations are correlated, the correlation coefficient between the collective activity of two subpopulations is typically much larger than Dryer Filter the correlation coefficient
