Information Theory measures:

Some notable differences between linear and Bayesian decoders (Choose all that apply)

Some of the limitations of decoding neural activity without knowledge of an underlying encoding mechanism (check all that apply)

If the data in a given class is Poisson distributed, the principal components capture all the statistics of the data and therefore can be used for classification.

The discriminability index in hypothesis testing provides a complete characterization of the decoding of a signal assuming that the noise follows a normal (Gaussian) distribution with a fixed variance, independent of the signal strength In the graphs below, different signal detection thresholds are shown. Check all that apply: A     B     C        

information theory can be used to estimate information transfer without making any assumptions about how the stimulus is encoded in the measured neural Activity.
