SPARSE CODING
Background
Redundancy: the total number of spikes elicited by a sensory stimulus exceeds the number needed for sensory perception.
‘‘Sparse coding’’: while individual neurons can fire at high instantaneousfrequencies, particularly in primary sensory cortices, the maximum sustainable average firing rate has been estimated to be between 1 and 4 Hz.
The cortex can optimize the fraction of neurons responding when the stimulus is presented (sparse population coding) and/or can optimize how frequently a single neuron responds when the stimulus is presented n times (lifetime sparseness, or fidelity)

Developing a variant of fear conditioning in freely exploring mice in which whisker stimulation (conditional stimulus [CS]) was either paired or explicitly unpaired with foot shock.
Examining how learning the association between the CS and the shockaffected subsequent encoding of the CS using in vivo calciumimaging. Examining whether the results were specific to associative learning
What is the relationship between cortical sparsification and associative learning?
Three sets of experiments

Conclusion 1 : fear learning reduces the fraction of neurons responding to the CS, while increasing the strength of responsive neurons. The net effect is an enhancement of sparse population coding with a moderate decrease in total activity.

PART III Are the effects observed after associative fear conditioning general to learning per se, or specific to associative fear learning?

Conclusion 2: exposure to a nonreinforced stimulus has no effect on population sparsification, but does enhance response fidelity at the expense of response strength.
